A map of my own fate would encompass Bukovina as my native land, the Transdnistrian concentration camp of my childhood, the Communist labor camp Periprava where my father’s identity was altered, the Bucharest of my student years and my adulthood, Berlin, my exile’s starting point, and finally New York, where my exile found its residence. This fate is its own “Babel,” a confused mixture of memories and places.
我自己的命运之图绘有出生地布科维纳，儿时生活过的Transdnistrian集中营，改变了我父亲身份的共产主义劳改所Periprava，见证过我学生与成年时光的布加勒斯特，我流亡生活的起点柏林，还有流亡生活最后的庇护所纽约。我的经历异常“混乱”，混杂了各式各样的记忆和地点。
