Vlad Zografi

Ileana Alexandra-Orlich

Renown for his plays depicting the socio-cultural context of modern society after the fall of Communism, popular playwright Vlad Zografi invites readers to consider contemporary theater from multiple and mutually enriching and dramatic perspectives. The brilliance of his plays reflect a liberated and live theater in which readers are drawn into the sentiments and obsessions of characters as diverse as a nameless and bare-footed leper, Russian Czar Peter the Great on a visit to the court of France, and, a young Oedipus enthralled by Pythia at Delphi."This is an exciting book--witty, smart and funny."--Aura Imbarus, best-selling author of, Out of the Transylvania Night and, co-founder, Romanian-American Professional Network"I am not an enthusiastic reader of contemporary theatre, but Vlad Zografi's plays are an exception. Like music, they enchant the audience and trigger an anticipatory joy with the reading of each new scene. Zografi is an architect of the theatrical composition, with the heart of a poet who knows how to seduce the reader with the event transposed on the stage. We recognize ihn them our own world and ourselves, and yet their novelty surprises and delights us each time with renewed appreciation."-Ioana Parvulescu, literary critic, Romania Literara
