Writer David Kimel is a servant of the Resurrection not of just one, but of all Resurrections. Dear readers will see for themselves how the departed loved ones come back to life, how the spirit of life returns to Simona and the others, how the old Grant neighborhood of Bucharest and its entire quarter come alive again with living people, with houses and gardens, and cemeteries left unchanged. How the kiosk owners, booksellers, and printers generously offer their time-honoured services. How the Stadium resounds with the roar of the matches, how the neighbourhood cinemas take note of the desperate cries of Sound! from viewers staring wide-eyed at the cowboys on the screen; how the apartment block on Eduard Grant fills the quarter with the music of César Franck from Ruth and Rebecca...
I was there too in fact, I lived for decades in that Arcadia. I loved and suffered alongside Dorel. His testimonies are mine as well. Only the form of telling differs:
Because only he could write with such beauty.
A Foggy Sunrise is a book full of originality in style, authenticity in content, and vitality in action. It is amusing and provocative. It has every chance of becoming a bestseller.
