„"From Queneau, an incident is retained, a short story, an event that happened on a bus, an incident between two travelers, one of whom was wearing a soft hat, with a string instead of a ribbon and was missing a button on his overcoat. This episode, with its details, is narrated in many ways, turned inside out, each time opening up a different comic perspective. After being initially played "objectively", it is "narrated" now by an Arab who speaks roughly Romanian, now by an Oltean, now by a Transylvanian shepherd, now by a grandmother, now by a gypsy, now by a Frenchwoman, now by "becoming" a well-known character from the period of the flower bridges across the Prut; at another moment it becomes a fashionable music text, a pretext for parodying soap operas, it is "filtered" through the sclerotic ears of a decrepit old man or it is an opportunity for play, for amusement with half-words or combined words." (Dumitru Chirilă in "Familia" no. 1, January 2000).
