The postmodernism reevaluates the past from a pluralist point of vie, that is through various moods gathered in a dialogue with the forms of tradition. A part of Nedelciu’s characters become intertextual retorts of the novel ‘’Morometii’’ by Marin Preda, being related more or less to the social realities. Thus, Moromete can be found in old Calafoc, in Vasile Sava, a dislocated of the history, or in any other ‘’grey hats’’, those characters taken from the village and projected in the space of the urban factories, those who are no longer peasants or city dwellers. After searching for the inner self in the two worlds, the young people choose to remain near the factory, trying then hard to find a house; the older ones would rather swing between ’’at home’’ and ’’at the factory’’, giving up the name of peasant, in the meantime not winning the name of townsman, thus being situated in an area of border. And, because there is no one left to gather the crops of the Agricultural Production Co-operative, it is time the young recruits were brought, this time by truck and only temporary, to face the land. Through its experimental nature, Marin Preda proves that the reference to the literary models does not presuppose destroying them, but an intellectual dialogue with the dynamic of the work and authors through textual engineering; anyway the world of the text is a Utopian one –being more or less positive.
