His Majesty, the reader,

placed valued books on the time shelves.

Books, magazines, online pages—

they are the writer’s direct bridge to the reader.

His Majesty, the reader,

placed these values on the time shelves.

(Maria TONU)

I have participated in hundreds of events 

and have read my poetry, prose, and quotes with great love. 

The podium from which I have read was a radio or television studio; 

it was a concert, a cenacle meeting, a visit to a school, or other institutions 

where I have gone with great love. 

The photos on this page are social documents that confirm 

my work as a writer and my work as a citizen and patriot for world cultural values.
