Times New Romanian : Voices and Narrative from Romania, Paperback / softback Book

Times New Romanian : Voices and Narrative from Romania Paperback / softback

Edited by Nigel Shakespear

Paperback / softback

Description

Times New Romanian provides a picture of Romania today through the individual first-person narratives of people who chose to go and make a life in this country.

Each chapter a voice, each story in Times New Romanian provides readers with a look into the Romanian world - the way things work, the vitality of the people, the living heritage of rural traditions, ordinary life - sometimes dark, sometimes sublime, always interesting.

In a land full of character and contradiction, there is a strong attraction for those with the spirit to meet the challenges, where the one thing you can be sure of is the unpredictable.

Life is not always easy. These stories will tell you why... If you want to know more about Romanians and their country, the voices in Times New Romanian make for an enjoyable and lively read.

Inspired by Studs Terkel and Tony Parker, Nigel used their oral history style and his own experience in Romania to guide him in recording these interviews.
