Sufletul lumii este o carte-­univers, în care realul se amestecă cu fantasticul, urbanul cu ruralul, lumile interioare ale personajelor cu lumile exterioare, înmuiate când în lumină, când în întuneric. Însă poate cel mai pregnant dintre personajele create de Camelia Cavadia în această carte este prezența. E o carte pe care o citești cu sufletul la gură și cu ochii măriți, care te poartă prin povești magice, când înspăimântătoare, precum cele spuse la căldura focului de bunica, când luminoase și atinse de aripi hieratice.

These are questions posed by the characters who inhabit this book of stories by the award-winning Russian writer Ludmila Ulitskaya.

The two older Germans, the Professor and the German actress’ mother, talk incessantly of food and soul. They agree that the English are “fish blooded,” cold and without soul.

As beautiful souls, sometimes, our lives can be blighted or blessed by situations or events. The moral in most of my stories is that "the music of life" will take on different themes, rhythms, and moods, however throughout the highs and the lows as individuals, we should carry on and learn from each and every experience.
