Summary/Abstract: Why do some writers succeed to write without any impediment one book after another, and the creative flow of others simply breaks up for years or even decades? Which are the traumas that determine alterations of one trajectory? How did the transactions with the dictatorial power reverberate upon the actual writing process? Was the chance of writing in liberty always a benefit? What happened to some authors when there was no more sense to continue protesting against the late oppressive regime? How come that some writers have various themes and others bring up the same characters and subjects? – These are the questions that the article tries to answer.
