Ion Vlad investigates the distinct heraldry of "the novel of ideas" and whether this taxonomy is still viable within the wide and heterogeneous sphere of narrative. He closely reads the work of Thomas Mann, Robert Musil, Hermann Broch, Witold Gombrowicz, Günter Grass and others, hoping to shed light on this complicated question.
