This paper analyses Florina Ilis’s novel Cinci nori colorați pe cerul de răsărit while including it in the wider context of posthumanities. Since the writer is also the author of a theoretical study on cyberpunk fiction, I thought it adequate to use posthumanities as a primary tool. Some of the prevalent themes in the text are: the primacy of information over matter, the alteration of social or personal practices and the humanisation of technology.

Focusing on the success of Florina Ilis’ novel The children’s crusade, this article explores its potential as a literary contribution in a broader global discourse, as it could be considered “literary Romanian capital” in a discussion about world literature. While the book draws on clichéd stereotypes of Romanian society from the early 2000s, including the Ceaușescu era and the challenging transition from communism to democracy, the author uses a universal language of trauma. This allows for a wider audience to engage with the themes presented in the novel. Thus, her story becomes part of a global collection of works exploring the theme of the “children’s crusade” (including George Zabriskie Gray, Marcel Schwob, Lucian Blaga, Jerzy Andrzejewski, Thea Beckman, Gregory J. Rinaldi, Karleen Bradford, Kathleen McDonnell, Bryce Courtenay, Mario Vargas Llosa, Tullio Avoledo, amongst others). Considering the connection between continuity and innovation in Romanian literature, 75 years following Lucian Blaga’s play, with the same title, Florina Ilis employs a plot with medieval roots in her novel, which has fascinated writers worldwide, to deliver a unique perspective, in a new discourse.
