“Postmodern literature” is an interesting field of the contemporary literature which contains an attractive frency for the auhors and readers of the texts eluding from the structuralist approach. The text elements: body, form and structure, are like the wooden pieces floating on the waves of water, without any conveying orientation of sense. Polyphony, deconstruction and Schizophrenic image are three important aspects of a postmodern text (poem, novel, play, scenario, ...), the criteria to distinguish a different text from a postmodern one.
