# Liviu Bratoloveanu

> Liviu Bratoloveanu, pen name of Vasile Gheorghe Bratoloveanu, was a Romanian poet, novelist, playwright, and communist militant. He was a native of Turnu Severin in westernmost Oltenia, an area that remained central to his fiction. During a troubled childhood which eventually saw him abandoning school, he debuted with contributions in children's magazine. In his twenties, he became a full-time journalist, publishing his first volume of poetry in 1935. Bratoloveanu was by then adapting to the stylistic requirements of proletarian literature, and, in terms of politics, moved closer to the outlawed Communist Party. A succession of fascist regimes silenced this aspect of his contributions, though he was still allowed to work in cultural journalism - finding permanent employment as a clerk and cultural promoter in the state railway carrier. During World War II, Bratoloveanu may have joined the fascist Iron Guard, an aspect that was expunged from his biographies; he was however mostly withdrawn, working intensely on a series of novels and stories that were only published much much later, or not published at all.
