At times humorous, at others tragic and fierce, sometimes fantastic and luminous like a Chagall painting, what predominates in this wonderful story, , is the figure of the terrible loneliness in which the human spirit finds itself when deprived of love.

The ghost is the narrative catalyst that brings secret forces to the surface, especially of a sexual nature, and is also the most visible behavior, the sole faith—dissolved as well in the last part of the novel.

Doina Ruști’s book showcases a wide range of literary aptitudes that measure resilience in Romanian history of the 20th century.

The novel Eliza a los once años by Doina Ruști has exceptional literary qualities

Doina Ruști convierte su novela en una furiosa causa general contra la depravación de los valores éticos que han de regir cualquer sociedad desarrollada.
