Alin Tișe makes his debut as an author of a book in Spanish
The volume "Suflet Regăsit" ("Alma Reencontrada") was launched at the Book & Arts Festival of Romanians Everywhere in Bimenes, Asturias, where Tișe received an excellence award.

The book launch took place at the Book & Arts Festival of Romanians Everywhere in Bimenes, in the Asturias region of Spain, at its fourth edition and organized by the Centro Cultural la Tierra Tracia Association, with the support of the Department for Romanians Everywhere.
The book, published by Eride Ediciones under the title "Alma Reencontrada", was translated by Dana Oprica, Violeta Andrei Stoicescu and Ava Văcărașu. On this occasion, Alin Tișe received the excellence award for literature from the organizers.
This is the fifth book signed by the president of the Cluj County Council, after "Story for Dad", "The Butterfly of Yearning and the Water Lily – The Religion of Love", "Caesar, God, Love" and "Love Sought Through Sins – Iova". The volume "The Butterfly of Yearning..." was previously translated into Hungarian and received the "Art Danubius" award for best novel of 2025, in Budapest.
Tișe stated that the Spanish translation honors a promise made last year, at the third edition of the "CultuRo" Festival in Alcalá de Henares, where he had launched two other volumes. He specified that the new book brings together essays about rediscovering one's own soul.
For Cluj natives settled in Spain, the event in Bimenes offered the opportunity to hear, in their language, the story of an author from their hometown, presented directly to the diaspora audience.
