communist regime,[2] he returned with the short volumes of verse Dincolo de cuvinte (1967), Determinări (1970), Codice (1974) and Ianuarii (1976). Together with his debut volume and the set of unpublished poems Decor penitent II, all were issued in 1979 as Împărăția de seară, which earned the Romanian Academy's Eminescu Prize. His 1986 Singurătatea din urmă, apparently autobiographical, was philosophical in scope. Trecerea (1981) and Dogma (1984; Bucharest Writers' Society Prize) were two late poetry volumes.[1] Călător spre porțile asfințitului, a novel written from 1988 to 1991 and published posthumously in 2006, takes up the autobiographical theme. The protagonist, now mature, works in the legal profession, both on the Bărăgan Plain and in a city readily apparent as Brăila.[2]
