Disputed, in moments of reverie, between poetry and prose, the literary critic Constantin M. Popa offers the surprise of the volume Magog Blues, in which he gathers lyrical and epic creations, the fruit of his travels in more or less exotic spaces, but also in a time of recollections, dominated by the belief that great culture is not a territory to borrow formal themes or procedures, but it represents a huge reservoir of values and suggestions, attractive both for the author and his readers.
