Dangerous Caprices

Bag om Dangerous Caprices

The only difference between a caprice and a lifelong passion is that the caprice lasts a little longerOscar Wilde The Picture of Dorian Gray Nora Iuga created her title from this half-remembered quotation.Already at the age of 67 when Iuga brought out this collection, her typical subject-matter of love and sensuality and relationships had extended to include leave-taking and death - as well as language itself. Writing has a redemptive effect, and is sometimes the only way out of despair: her 'ballpoint pen is equal to god'. This collection encompasses elements of surreality, captivating the reader with unexpected imagery. There is wistfulness, too, but Iuga is never bitter, and an undertone of irony is ever-present.
