@corinnec Petru Popescu has some books written in English. I don't know how good they are. This is my first read by him. But he is living in the USA and writing there in English. I think this one is not translated. It is his first in Romanian after many many years.
Alexandros Papadiamandis is Greek and I suppose you can find some of his writings in translation. The Murderess is his best known novel and it is said tgat his short stories are very good. I bought these in his memorial house in Skiathos.
