Description
Summary:This study seeks to capture the unlimited richness of the message of a small novel as Travesty, by Mircea Cărtărescu. By an adult who tries to understand the meaning of a strange experience of adolescence, the writer offers outstanding artistic quality pages, which challenge the imagination of any informed reader. I tried to interpret some elements of the alchemy writing in this novel, such as the double meaning in the ritual initiation of Budila, the magical value of some haunting symbol-metaphors, as the spider and the nymph, and the antagonism of the archetypal representations in the writer's imagination – the androgynous and the hermaphrodite.
