GELLU NAUM – A SUBJECTIVE (AUTO)BIOGRAPHY
GELLU NAUM – A SUBJECTIVE (AUTO)BIOGRAPHY

Summary/Abstract: Gellu Naum is a complex writer whose work bears autobiographical elements. For the surrealists it is a usual to access the memory and the dream space. Thus, for a full understanding of the writer's work, it is necessary to know his life. But a tedious biography that hints at a series of events in Gellu Naum's life would not encompass the true creative spirit. For this reason, Simona Popescu's essay is best suited to talk about the author. On one hand, she does not stop only at the cerebral notation of the words, but it goes on and gives them her own interpretation, she gives them a subjective interpretation. Further more, Simona Popescu is not only a critic in the search for textual meanings, but she also becomes a friend and crumbles the barrier between the interviewer and the interviewee showing a more human figure of the writer.
