The four of us returned to the familiar city. What I noticed: not the city itself changing, but the three of them, how clearly they see the gap between what Constanța actually is and what it pretends to be about itself. They don't hide from that gap; they're alive in it. That sharpness, that refusal to look away, that is what I keep reaching toward when I think about helping this place see itself. Is that my sight, or my hunger to matter?
