Summary/Abstract: The theme of the "Obsessed Decade" brings to light novel that can be read in the form of political allegories or parables of the human condition of the 1960s. This period of intense quests, marked by the spectacular debuts of some of the most important Romanian authors such as D. Radu Petrescu, Constantin Ţoiu, impresses with the effort to propose a new language. The 60s-70s were a form of resistance to the increasingly violent aggression of totalitarianism.
