Ana Blandiana, an internationally recognized writer, has been an opponent ofthe dictatorial regime of Nicolae Ceaușescu. She is a censored poet; she has had to struggle to find a way to convey her words. She became a symbol of the resistance, and despite the prohibition she continued to write; several of her tales and poems are both a reflection and a critique of how she lived under communist totalitarianism. Blandiana finds a way to live through writing. She ties her works to the fantasy genre, which are divided between a dream world and a historical reality. The dream is the place chosen by the writer to be able to express herself freely through the voice of her characters. In addition to the spatial duality, Blandiana chooses to situate her narratives in a temporal duality. The protagonists are immersed in the writer’s own past, and in an eternal present through which she projects her hopes for a better future.
