Voices of criticism

• Lorenz Hunter wrote in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung about the conversation mortal thoughts , led the Alexandru Bulucz with Dieter Henrich:

"The conversation that Alexandru Bulucz had with the philosopher Dieter Henrich [...] is serious and beautiful. It has high standards without appearing pretentious for a moment." (Lorenz Jäger: Even in Relation , in: FAZ , July 29, 2015)

• In the journal Language in the Technical Age , Michael Braun characterized the poems of Alexandru Bulucz as follows:

"Bulucz's poems [...] oscillate between German and Romanian, draw their breath from the radical language experience of Emile Cioran and Paul Celan and derive the polyphonic dynamics of the verses from it." (Michael Braun: Everything in the poem is transition. Alexandru Bulucz and the heavenly ladders of his polylingual poetry , in: Spr.itZ , H. 225)

• Paul-Henri Campbell understands the poems of Alexandru Bulucz, as he sums up in a portrait for the magazine Volltext ,

"as intellectual building blocks for a world that he anticipates with longing and vision." (Paul-Henri Campbell: Celan with a clown mask. The poem by Alexandru Bulucz , in: Volltext 1/2019)

• In the statement of the jury of the literary march , in which one of the two Wolfgang Weyrauch sponsorship awards in 2019 went to Alexandru Bulucz, it says about his poems,

"In which it is chance and hunger, quirk and pain that give the lyrical its form": "The experience of loss and forgetting shape them just as much as they set off again to fly to a home under the sounds of the hour wood It has become a misunderstanding. They translate crude reality into poetic knowledge in a witty and clever, sufficiently and poorly (sic!) Way. "
