The present article is focused on Nicolai Costenco’s book of memoirs „Povestea Vulturului” (The Eagle’s Tale), pursuing the variety of meanings of the motif „road”. We have attempted to depict not only the multitude of the implications this motif possesses, but to explore the circumstances that stimulate their appearance. Thus „the road” becomes the symbol of shame, disaster, and humiliation. Besides, it functions as a key factor that disintegrates the personality both physically and spiritually.
