    • Synopsis: "Two Lines Press and Cuentero Productions present 'Cigarettes Until Tomorrow,' a collection of Romanian poetry in translation adapted as an audio project. Along the eastern edge of Europe, Romania’s vibrant poetry scene perches on the Black Sea. With black humor and in cutting, contemporary language, four featured Romanian poets assemble a series of profound moments from their daily lives. Tanks invade while soccer games go down to the last minute; there are lonely cemeteries and urine-soaked sheets and endless Instagram reels. And what results is a stunning portrait of all our lives in the 21st century—the cycles of outrage, boredom, and ecstasy—as we get to see ourselves from an entirely new viewpoint."
