Cigarettes Until Tomorrow: Romanian Poetry

By Adela Greceanu

Book Overview

Along the eastern edge of Europe, Romania's vibrant poetry scene perches on the Black Sea. In Cigarettes Until Tomorrow, eight Romanian poets use black humor searing contemporary language to make everyday scenes profound. Tanks invade while soccer games go down to the last minute. There are lonely cemeteries and urine-soaked sheets and endless Instagram reels. The resulting collection is a stunning portrait of all our lives in the 21st century: the boredom, the outrage, and the ecstasy.
