“Bucharest Tales”, an English-language book about the Romanian capital city will be launched at the Romanian Cultural Institute (38, Aleea Alexandru St.) on September 14, starting 17:00 hours. This collection of Central European Contemporary writing was published this year by New Europe Writers.

The volume brings together Bucharest-inspired poetry and prose, belonging to Romanian writers, like Mircea Cartarescu, Dan Mircea Cipariu, Denisa Comanescu, Stelian Tanase, Adrian Paunescu, but also  texts of foreign writers, namely Igor Isakovski from Macedonia, Mike Ormsby from UK and Jennifer Robertson from UK.

Bucharest Tales is the fourth book in this series, following ”Warsaw Tales”, “Prague Tales”, and “Budapest Tales”. Each volume contains short stories and poems written both by expats and by local writers.
