Summary/Abstract: The Young Generation had its own mission. We cannot say it managed to fulfill it. Most of its representatives died in the Romanian communist prisons, some of them ended up as losers, in spite of their key role in the ‘30s and in spite of their intelligence. We know for sure the names of Cioran, Eliade, Ionescu. But how did they manage to leave the country, to turn themselves into important "imported writers"? What did it happen to their colleagues? Why didn't they have the same chance? Who is to be blamed for?
