Description
A collection of poems dealing with various themes, emotions, and mental states, the overarching, unifying idea being memory. Memory yields us both fondness and regret. We tend to remember the places we've been in and the persons we have known either too much or too little and never very clearly. But time has the tendency of blurring the mind in such a way that it all becomes more pleasant than not when all is said and done. Remembrances still live within us long after the fact lest we forget too soon or remember too late. The poems try to highlight both of these tendencies. Vasile Munteanu earned a B.A. and a M.A. degree in English form Oakland University in Michigan and a Ph.D. in Philosophy, Interpretation and Culture from State University of New York at Binghamton. He has been teaching Literature and Philosophy at the College of Southern Nevada in Las Vegas.
