Cineva din afara lumii

"Anca Şerban's volume, particularly mature for a debut, brings to the fore a well-tempered lyrical breath, very well aligned with the diagrams of the soul seismograph that moves in deep registers, which she is not shy to attack decisively, with a lot of boldness, but also with a certain obsessive tension, with a double impact on the lyrics. Anca Şerban has an extremely well-developed science of cutting the lyrics, stripping the useless ballast, a technique that is learned over time, but it is also the testimony of the doubling of the lyrical act that, at times, can annihilate ontic boundaries and can reconfigure existential paths. The lyrical incursions, which are also very brave and lucid epistemological charges, reveal the reality without compromise. The incision points are chosen decisively, the operation on the meanings of life being done without reluctance, sometimes even with detachment. although the results and conclusions are serious and not infrequently overturn established balances, recalibrate them, redefine them and, in the end, move the existential resonance to an edge of being. We are dealing with a remarkable volume, very sonorous, through the technical and expressive maturity and the impact of the construction."
