Au cours des dernières années, Oana Avasilichioaei a collaboré avec nous à titre de traductrice pigiste sur plusieurs dossiers. Sa rigueur, la qualité de son travail ainsi que son professionnalisme font d’elle une collaboratrice appliquée et minutieuse. Son expertise dans le domaine et sa volonté à se perfectionner sont un atout très important dans ce milieu.
— André Thérien, President, Services d’édition Danielle Guy, November 2013
Oana Avasilichioaei is a fantastic editor. I think the first book can be a daunting exercise for any author and having an opinion you can trust is invaluable. Oana provided really crucial feedback and reflection when I needed it most.
— David Usher, musician, writer and technology developer, February 2014
Oana Avasilichioaei’s editing skills have been critical to my four most recent books of poetry—O Resplandor, The Unmemntioable, as well as Kapusta and Insecession now in progress—and to many recent essays. I’d seek her out first for any editorial work. She has an uncanny capacity to see weaknesses in structures of a book, a section, an article, along with an ability to see and communicate ideas for work and change, while not derailing the project from what you want it to be. And she never lets you off the hook; she really works to support you to make the work reach its maximum potential. Unequivocally recommended!
— Erín Moure, poet and translator, May 2013
Oana Avasilichioaei is a wonderful instructor with a keen gift of sharing her art in a very nonchalant manner, hence making it look easily do-able when it is definitely not.
