Summary/Abstract: The starting point of this study were some confessions that George Banu makes in Scena supravegheatǎ. De la Shakespeare la Genet, one of his essays. In the above-mentioned work, he defines himself as “an unfulfilled writer” and also as “an incomplete theorist”, stating that this permanent in-between left its mark on his writings. The present article deepens this topic, which has been discussed only in broad terms so far. By focusing on Banu’s essays and memorialistic writings, this survey shows how both form and content are influenced by the in-between.
