Abstract: As the title indicates, Grațiela Benga scrutinizes Vocile Penelopei, Tonuri și accente în poezia contemporană românească [Penelope’s Voices. Tones and Accents in Contemporary Romanian Poetry], within the first volume that aims to systematically analyze the production of recent Romanian poetry written by women. To preserve the metaphor, we have to say that not only the sounds, but also the silences of the poems are given insightful interpretations, in an attempt to understand what the (female) subject feels in relation to herself, the other, God, technology and other environments. The commented poems are grouped within eleven sections that highlight a thematic and stylistic kinship shared by Romanian women poets.
