About The Event
We are thrilled to announce the launching of our newest online series, entitled “My First American: Transatlantic Encounters and Portraits”, where some of the best-known contemporary Romanian writers recall through vivid vignettes and memorable portraits their momentous encounter with the very first American seen in flesh and blood. The opening episode of this year-round program features a young Ana Maria Sandu, sometime before her well-deserved breakthrough, frozen in awe in front of the charismatic Romanian-American literary star, Andrei Codrescu. English version of the text by Andrew Davidson-Novosivschei.
Watch on our Facebook, YouTube, IGTV and Website on Tuesday, April 19, 2 p.m. EST or any time later.
“My First American: Transatlantic Encounters and Portraits” is an online program developed in partnership with the National Museum of Romanian Literature in Bucharest. Next authors in the series: Bogdan Coșa, Adriana Babeți, Florin Lăzărescu, Elena Vlădăreanu, and Caius Dobrescu.
