Romanian author challenges perceptions of reality and emotional dependence in a bold new collection of essays.
Bucharest, Romania, 25th Jun 2025 — Celebrated Romanian writer Adrian Gabriel Dumitru has released his latest digital work, Cocaine for the Soul: Essays About Duality, now available on Amazon, Google Play Books, and Apple Books. In this deeply personal and philosophical collection, Dumitru confronts themes of addiction, emotional illusion, and the contradictions that define human existence.
Known for his introspective and often unfiltered voice, Adrian Gabriel Dumitru uses this new Kindle edition to continue his mission of using writing as a form of “self-therapy.” The book dives into the psyche of a man once caught in cycles of emotional addiction, not just to substances, but to love, illusion, and what he describes as the “abstract cocaine for the soul.”
In a style that blurs the line between memoir and philosophy, Dumitru reflects on how the illusions we embrace—whether they come through relationships, habits, or social norms—are necessary distractions from life’s dull monotony. “Maybe if I were wise enough, I would accept the theory that all is an illusion,” he muses in one of the essays. Rather than trying to escape the illusion, Dumitru suggests that embracing it may be the key to personal authenticity.
Cocaine for the Soul reads like a stream of consciousness from a mind caught between two realities: the dream of emotional fulfillment and the sobering truth of impermanence. Dumitru writes about past versions of himself—some addicted, some in love, all deeply introspective—and how even the most painful periods served a purpose. “I needed that. And I don’t regret it,” he says plainly. This refusal to disown his past becomes a central theme of the book.
Many of the essays touch on the duality of perception. At one time, Dumitru saw love as truth and normality as illusion; at another, he reversed that view. These contradictions, he argues, are not flaws but the very fabric of what it means to be human. “Is it the illusion of being in an illusion, or the illusion of escaping it?” he asks, leaving the answer open-ended but hauntingly relevant.
Readers familiar with Dumitru’s body of work will recognize his signature blend of philosophical exploration and psychological insight. His writing does not follow conventional structures but flows like a conversation with the self—raw, wandering, and honest. It’s a style that continues to resonate with readers seeking deeper emotional understanding.
Adrian Gabriel Dumitru is widely known for his extensive digital collection of philosophical, psychological, and self-development essays. His work aims to merge personal introspection with practical insight, creating writings that serve both as literature and as a mirror for the soul. His readership spans across the globe, drawn to the way he navigates universal questions of identity, desire, and purpose.
With Cocaine for the Soul: Essays About Duality, Dumitru adds another powerful volume to his growing archive of digital publications. It is not a guidebook or a conventional self-help manual, but rather a series of intimate reflections that give readers permission to embrace their contradictions.
