| Summary: | The present paper focuses on Alexandru Monciu -Sudinski, a Romanian author from the ‘70s who has been highly neglected by critics and was recently discovered due to the interest in his prose manifested by the youngest generation of writers. Eversince he took refuge in Sweden (in the very days of the communist regime, in 1979) there has been hardly any news about him, his works to which the public has access to being three books published in romanian before his going abroad (Rebarbor, 1971; Caractere, 1973; Biografii comune, 1974). Rebarbor is a fictionnal work, the other two are collections of “interviews taken to working people” – to make use of the expression widely used at that time. His short stories bind rough, violent themes with speech that is, from the point of view of artistic devices, highly refined and subtly elaborated. The interviews in the other two books reproduce so perfectly the thinking clichés of the masses, of those who, not having an authentic self-conscience, were populating the communist period, that still generate disputes as regards their authenticity or their fictionnal character. Alexandru Monciu-Sudinski is an author who fixes in his writing the essence of the way of thinking specific to a substantial category of people by immortalizing the structure of speech / thinking. It was the very social class that the communist system set itself the task to create. |
