A photograph of the Romanian writer Marius Daniel Popescu has been published in the French daily newspaper Le Monde (December 21, 2025).
The french publishing house Corti released in september 2025 his last novel, Le cri du barbeau.
The photograph was taken in Saint-Nazaire (France) in 2009 during the MEET festival (Maison des Écrivains Étrangers et Traducteurs).
"L’écriture de Marius Daniel Popescu est d’une générosité assez inouïe. Le Cri du barbeau vient clôturer, après La Symphonie du loup et Les Couleurs de l’hirondelle (Corti, 2007 et 2012), une trilogie sur les mots. Or, les mots, c’est assez rare pour le souligner, l’écrivain ne les accapare pas."
