Liliana Widocks


I am a Romanian when I’m working or studying and a Boltonian when I’m holidaying. My favourite philosopher is Emil Cioran, a Romanian existentialist who lived most of his life in France. In his book The Trouble with Being Born, he says: “There is nothing to say about anything. So there can be no limit to the number of books”. Thereupon, I keep writing.
