the fact that, even though they were all talking about the same thing, each of them was în his own world and nothing added up... Things were really confusing. Anyhow, the performance was really good and that’s why you go to the theatre, after all, not to learn more about the topic. Imagine my surprise when I found ouț later that, Iliescu’s accent notwithstanding, all those unbelievable things those people were talking about were for real. And that convoluted

s why I won’ț keep quiet. I want to talk about how terrible war is, how it destroys not just a person’s life, but an entire people. I’ve always said: “May God never allow another country to go through what my country did!” It was a very dirty war. I told you that my grandfather was born în 1892 and lived through the Balkan Wars. Mom and dad were born between 1932 and 1935 and my mother lost

It was “here and now”, and it was magic, because I was șo young and I did not perceive everything aș I did later on. I was staying around
