Summary/Abstract: In Romanian literature, the literary exile belongs to the after-war period which ended in 1989. Recovering and redeeming the exiled writers is a rather dynamic process in which the fiction writers impose themselves more easily than the poets for example. Following this path, the present article aims at touching merely a part of the poetic art of Ion Caraion hose traumatising life allowed the poet, in his exile freedom, to ‘tame’ his trauma, and to create a poetic work in the form of an ironical-sarcastic commentary of the maleficent and the common, of the insipid and the trivial, of the vile and of the sadist, all of which in verse, and which gives birth to terrifying of the apocalyptic or banal dimension.
