Not that classics aren't classic, but my dads collection hand out is quite old.
It wouldn't be so bad if it started and remained bone, but it started off half interesting with the story leading up to him being hung. Now its hard to read and take in, kinda slow, the mind wonders.

you have to understand that the transnational artistic 'canon' rests just as much upon translation as upon original art.Jenspm wrote:

you can revere your own cultural heroes, just as im sure romania does theirs, but it doesn't mean they're internationally important.
when you build a bigger picture of the artistic trends, regardless of country-of-origin, you soon learn that your own 'heroes' were just copying on to already-existing continental trends, anyway.
