Acest roman a lui Mircea Eliade a fost traditional interpretat ca o povestire fantastica in care batranul Farama reanvie tot felul de mituri romanesti, intr-un decor fals modern, ca un fel de simbolistica revansa a acelui fond ancestral pe care comunistii, in acei ani, il denigrau. Fantasticul, cu alte cuvinte, se vadeste mai puternic decat realul, iar Eliade, atunci exilat in Occident, reuseste sa-si mentina solidaritatea cu spiritualitatea romaneasca in ciuda unei puteri totalitare care dorea sa distruga si spiritul si exilul. Sorin Alexandrescu

Mircea Eliade
Author · 77 books
Romanian-born historian of religion, fiction writer, philosopher, professor at the University of Chicago, and one of the pre-eminent interpreters of world religion in the last century. Eliade was an intensely prolific author of fiction and non-fiction alike, publishing over 1,300 pieces over 60 years. He earned international fame with LE MYTHE DE L'ÉTERNAL RETOUR (1949, The Myth of the Eternal Return), an interpretation of religious symbols and imagery. Eliade was much interested in the world of the unconscious. The central theme in his novels was erotic love.
