Summary/Abstract: This essay is a fragment from the forthcoming novel "Convoiul," set to be published by Editura Junimea din Iași. The narrative follows a march through narrow mountain paths and broad highways, symbolizing life's journey through moments of confinement and liberation. The story vividly describes the physical and psychological experiences of the marchers, their interactions with the environment, and their internal reflections on freedom, confinement, and the passage of time. The recurring rhythm of marching steps, the detailed observation of surroundings, and the philosophical musings of the narrator create a rich tapestry that explores themes of perseverance, societal control, and the search for meaning in constrained circumstances.
