Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

The short-sighted adolescent is a poor schoolboy who is in love with literature, and tries to emulate the lives and works of the writers he most admires. He is also fascinated by science and history, and stays up all night reading. At the age of 17 he decides to write a novel to prove to his teachers that he is not as mediocre as his fellow pupils, and is prepared to give up everything in order to do so. The novel is written in a series of notebooks - the ''diary'' of the title - but instead of achieving fame as an author, the myopic protagonist fails his exams and has to repeat the school year.

From the perspective of a schoolboy''s diary of everyday life in Bucharest in the early 20th century, - his teachers, his classmates'' academic and amorous rivalries, his first sexual experiences - we are introduced to the themes of religion, self-knowledge, erotic sensibility, artistic creation and otherness, subjects that would preoccupy Mircea Eliade, one of Romania''s most prominent intellectuals, until the end of his life.
