Summary/Abstract: This study analyzes the phonetic features and vocalic structures specific to Gabriela Adameșteanu’s fictional universe, focusing on a structural-stylistic perspective on two fundamental works: Dimineață pierdută and Drumul egal al fiecărei zile. The investigation examines how phonetic alternations, sound groups (diphthongs, triphthongs, hiatuses), and suprasegmental phenomena (elision, contraction, intonation) contribute to the construction of stylistic dominance and to the socio-cultural stratification of the characters. The paper argues that phonetic organization is not merely a passive background, but a functional paradigm that is relevant to the configuration of narrative polyphony.
