Summary/Abstract: Sorin Titel’s fiction promotes a multicultural and polysemous vision, from the first narratives in the 1970s, associated to Onirism, to his maturity novels, designed in the regional area of Western Romania. His prose has a subversive potential, both as an allegory of the totalitarian city, and as interrogative realism. Timişoara and Banat of his fictions, projected in the spirit of Central Europe, are an important contribution to the alternative imagined by A Treia Europă (The Third Europe), subsequently described and theorized by the group of researchers led by Cornel Ungureanu and Adriana Babeţi. The periphery becomes the center, in a space of memory and imagination
