  Abstract:  Who is D. Tsepeneag? The double of Ţepeneag, the printed form of an exotic signature, the alter-ego of Ed Pasternague, the name used to sign the novel Pigeon Vole or, to sum up, the Other, the continuous shift between two cultural identities of a Romanian born writer. And also, of course, it is the subject of a study carried out by Laura Pavel. Now, why choosing such an intricate personality? Simply because, as the author says, it is fascinating to understand who is the person standing behind the oneiric hybrid text that mix altogether painting and writing as if they were recomposing and re-creating the spiral drawn by Saul Steinberg.
