Summary/Abstract: Iulian Boldea is a constant observer of contemporary literature and criticism, he takes into account the perspective on Romanian literature, memoirs and literary criticism as shaped by nowadays recent books. The volume by the literary critic based in Târgu Mureș is not a literary history, but a collection of very varied studies, organized by genre, which makes the book a practical description of the situation of Romanian literature after December 1989. The literary critic's ability to synthesize is impressive, but especially the close-reading exercise. The book reveals, in fact, the set of important readings that a reader of our century must have. Therefore, Iulian Boldea's volume is also a guide for the contemporary reader who needs a selection of value in the rich landscape of Romanian literary publications.
