Summary/Abstract: Regăsirea intimităţii- Corpul în proza românească interbelică şi postdecembristă (The Findings of Intimacy. The Body in Romanian Interwar and Post-1989 Prose) by Simona Sora argues the changes that occurred in the perception of the body by opposing the paradigms of modernity at its highest peak versus postmodernity in Romanian literature. Simona Sora is a critic who knows how to render a particular flexibility to all the difficult concepts she operates with. Her writing never loses its edge and its inquietude. Abstractions are tamed through coinages of new words and concepts that give a thrill of surprise to long demonstrations.
