A VOICE FOR INDEPENDENT AUTHORS
by
Some writers pull you into their story so easily that you have no time to notice how quickly and deeply you’ve become immersed. Usually, this happens due to exquisite writing or a compelling plot. Sometimes, the reader is treated to both. When the story being told is also magically imbued, the immersion feels much like an invisible spell cast by irresistible words — a literary incantation, if you will. Within such conjurations, single phrases — sometimes disarmingly simple — evoke the most profound emotions. Consider an early observation made by the narrator in Doina Ruști’s exquisitely literate and magical novel, The Book of Perilous Dishes:
What sadness there is in clothes that no one will wear anymore!
Within the context of a most remarkable scene, this simple phrase evokes emotions beyond what should be warranted while creating an atmosphere impossible to dispel. At this point, the reader is already spellbound, immersed, and utterly engaged.
The plot of this reality-twisting, imaginative adventure may be simply stated, but no mere words could convey the impressive texture and complexity of its execution.
