Summary/Abstract: For Gabriela Adameşteanu, journalism had an integrative meaning, insofar as it summarizes a comprehensive image of history, a perspective of adequate understanding of the world. Gabriela Adameșteanu looks, however, with lucidity as a publicist commentator of the immediate reality, noting the aporias and difficulties of this reputed profession by the laconic, concise, objective expression, in total opposition to the reasons of being of a novelist with tree phrase, agglutinating style, developed expression. Gabriela Adameşteanu's books are under the sign of searching for the truth, revealing the physiognomy of a personal history and a collective history, in a turbulent, confused historical context, with barren enthusiasms, with illusions, disappointments, and chaotic implications.
