The author Serban Margineanu covers gently, and full of compassion, the characters that represent some people disowned by fate. Maybe just a few people know that S. Margineanu describes, in a way, himself in these pages. Poor, having an agitated life and long forgotten by his family, this writer succeeded alone in his complicated literary career. A poet and romancer, this anonymous rhapsode of the sordid neighbor-hoods, the cemeteries, the miserable people, and of the whores and the dogs without any master, Serban Margineanu hasn't received any support from any Romanian publishing house or from his illiterate and unsporting family.
ON THE FOOTPRINTS OF THE GHOST CLINIQUE is, above all, a social novel. It is constructed with the style of a crime novel, to facilitate the public access towards a more digestible literary type of fiction. The majority of the characters are marked by an immense social trauma.
