The present study develops a system of values in the literary work of Romain Gary. This system of values is clearly marked by Postmodernism, which explains the frequent occurence of the paradox in his novels. Beside this aspect, imagination and fantasy play an important part in presenting the specific ethical values. These values are therefore deeply aestheticised; the ethical perspective in the work of R. Gary is defined by aesthetics which are practiced in real life. The motto of most of Gary's characters is to have a life similar to a work of art. The work of art is not abstract, it should serve the community, the society, it should be governed by responsibility and fraternity. The ethical perspective in Romain Gary's work is developed in this study with the support of secondary literature authors, such as: Hans Jonas "The Principle of Responsibility", Zygmunt Bauman "Postmodern Ethics" and of some studies of Michel Maffesoli. Also worthy of note is the philosophical series of articles "Morales" of the Paris publishing house Autrement. ; published
