Prisoner
About This Novel
"Prisoners" is the author's first published work, which has special literary value and significance. The novel creates three main characters: a depressed teacher, a sensitive and lonely daughter of a suspected war criminal who committed suicide, and a young engineer. The novel presents the lives of people who experienced the Nazi Holocaust and fell into the totalitarian rule of Ceausescu. They were suppressed, doubted and distorted by the power of the underworld, and became injured, weak and failed. The characteristic of the language of the manuscript is that it combines reality with dreams, and the writing style of both reality and fantasy is like a monologue or raving. As Manea's first work, this book basically has the prototype of his literary language to become a world-class writer.
