Sample Poems by Stella Vinitchi Radulescu
“Stella Radulescu’s poems are rich in connotations, metaphysically profound in some great unlocatable fashion. Surreal, ethereal, some of the poems enact ghostly things, and a very powerful world view glitters and solidifies... It’s a dark poetry shining with the ecstasy of the imagination let loose, a triumph of being, a war against banality.”—David Dodd Lee
“Radulescu is skeptical, but unrelenting, in her pursuit of mystery. In her unrelentingness, she reminds me of the 17th century Metaphysical poets, while stylistically, she is clearly a descendent of the Surrealists and Modernists. She has melded disparate traditions seamlessly in her poetry, and the precise mixture of elements in her work is perhaps unique in American poetry, and our poetry is richer for it.” —Luke Hankins, Asheville Poetry Review
