Panaït Istrati is known as a writer granting an important place to his own life, reflections and beliefs in his literary work. Nevertheless, their influence has not been perceived when it comes to his depiction of love in the couple. Yet this influence on the birth and superposition of the writer’s paratopia’s explain the originality of these representations in Kyra Kyralina and Oncle Anghel. This article aims to consider two origins to these paratopia’s, to grasp their effects on the view of the works of fiction on the couple’s love and to take the measure of its originality, once contextualized in the interwar period’s society and literary production.
