The Four Graces: Poems translated by Sophia Dediu

How fresh, oh Lord, how sweet and clean are these poems! And what nice and historic photographs, from three continents (America, Europe and Asia), and spanning from this year to over 75 years ago!Ana Dediu (1912 - 2010) was a professor of history, but worked in many different areas, and was very lyrically inclined, navigating that unusual intersection of artless business and very suave poetry. She had a distinctive ability to conceptualize the world around her, and to communicate it, through charming poems, to all of us. Virgil Dediu (1912 - 1986), her husband, an electrical engineer, helped immensely in creating a solid and prosperous family. His example inspired my aphorism: opportunities are anytime and anywhere, but only those who are looking for them and take them first, will harvest the rewards.The efforts of Ana Dediu’s daughter-in-law, Sophia Dediu, to prepare this book and to translate the poems, are truly magnificent.What luxurious simplicity and infinite joy to read this fascinating book!
