  • Romanian Nostalgia – Lyrical Edition

    Romanian Nostalgia – Lyrical Edition

    March 10, 2021
    by Alexandra Barbu, Literature, Poetry

    My last article was a confession of the overwhelming nostalgia that I felt while being away from home for so long. I mentioned the strong feelings one gets when listening to old songs, which brought me to the idea of starting a series of Romanian Nostalgia cures, starting with my favorite way to self-soothe: translating…

    by Writing

    Everyone who writes regularly knows the feeling of a complete and utter lack of inspiration. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a professional or an amateur, we are all faced by this uncomfortable feeling of not knowing what to write about, or how to continue a piece that we’ve written. Every idea feels unoriginal, every word…

    The Missing Women Problem in Fiction

    February 15, 2021
    by Eda Saridogan, Literature

    I have to confess something: I’m at a point in my life where I am unable to enjoy films, shows or books that are so clearly geared towards a male audience. What do I mean by this? I mean, if there are no women in the story, or the women are reduced to mere love…
