Summary/Abstract: I have been trying in this essay concerning the works written by Paul Goma, the most important writer born in Republic of Moldavia, that has become after his refuge in Romania, the most important dissident against Romanian Communist Regime, a Romanian Solzsenițin, as he was named by Eugene Ionesco, who fled to Paris and became one of the most important writer of the Romanian exile in the West. After his recent death his works have for the first time the chance to be judged without their author, without the polemics in which Paul Goma has been involved, in which he lost most of his friends, being caught in this trap of suspicion and hate.
