Abstract

"Prevestirea" is the fourth Romanian occurrence, published in 2020 as the first edition by Humanitas, under the authorship of Ioana Pârvulescu. Centered around the figure of the prophet Jonah, the novel is allowed to act as a bridge across time, intertwining the past with the present narrative and the prophetic future. It is also permitted to become a subtle meditation on time-manifesting as a distinct voice in the novel-on faith, and on identity.However, without the Creator's Word, chance would remain mere chance, and the characters of the novel would no longer perform, but would only present a world imagined by the author. Our article aims to present, factually, the polyphonic presences in which the voices of the characters, the epochs, and the ideas coexist without submitting to asingle authoritative instance, as well as their significance within the pages of the aforementioned novel.
