Exista azi multi prozatori care, in loc sa povesteasca intamplarile intr-o ordine cronologica, le istorisesc “dezordonat”, simuland capriciosul proces al rememorarii. Spre deosebire de ei, Mihai Sin face din rememorare o a doua natura a prozei; citindu-i cartile, ai impresia ca naratiunile respective nici nu se puteau desfasura altfel. Proza lui Mihai Sin este trainica si sobra ca o haina soldateasca. (Alex. Stefanescu)


There are many authors today who, instead of recounting the events in chronological order, do that “in a disorderly fashion”, pretending to follow the whimsical process of recollection. Unlike them, Mihai Sin turns recollection into a second nature of prose; one has the impression that the respective narratives couldn't have unfolded in a different way. Mihai Sin's prose is as hard-wearing and plain as a soldier's coat. (Alex. Stefanescu)
