"The scope of Constantin Barbu's poem ABANDONMENT OF THE VOID--a tenvolume work written over many years--places it in the long poem genre similar to Ezra Pound's The Cantos and Charles Olsen's The Maximus Poems. Presented here in English translation from the original Romanian by Veronica Lungu is the fourth book subtitled MENTAL LANDSCAPES. Like T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land, the tone of the poem is a little intimidating in that it focuses so relentlessly on the void. Thus, the poem represents a postmodern exploration of inner existential foreboding and distress."--Bill Wolak
