| Summary: | This essay offers a survey on Camil Baciu, Romanian author of some highly relevant science – fiction writings. Starting from his socialism-realism beginnings with propaganda sketches written form Communist newspapers or with rudimentary science-fiction novellas treating themes as anti[1]proletarian development of capitalist technologies like robots and atomic bombs, the essay analyzes Baciu’s gradual literary fulfillment in the Fantastica Romania field of the 60s. His most important piece of work is Grădina zeilor (The Garden of Gods), published in 1968, right before the author’s exile. This poetical novel, containing Chagall-like raptures in the diurnal logic, offers a powerful fiction on Holocaust and on various anti-totalitarian humanistic aspirations. |
