	Books \| Yordan Radichkov
		Yordan Radichkov, who has died aged 74, was arguably the most significant voice of Bulgarian literature in the last third of the 20th century.
		Radichkov was born into a poor family in the village of Kalimanitsa, in northwest Bulgaria.
		The politics of his writing, however, was perhaps less significant than its warmth and casual wisdom, with its fear of dehumanisation and the shattered intimacy between man and nature, where one could no longer "recognise the voices of the birds".

	Changing perspectives (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Ingeniously merging ‘naïve’ ideas about the unknown and invoking Nature via the biologically conditioned activities of the sparrows (a collective image), the author places human existence in relation to Nature in a way that allows us to view the first as a mirror-image to the second.
		The personification transforms the animal world into a grotesque reflection of the human world, while the human is observed, felt, and analyzed through a ‘primitive’ mind.
		This gives Radichkov’s zoo fantasy fiction a deep ethical and philosophical charge that makes it suitable not only for children but for readers of all ages.

	Cultural Aspects
		Inspiration changed with Aleko Konstantinov (1863-1897), who transformed Bay Ganyo into a Bulgarian peasant and with the lyrical poets Penco Slavejkov (1866-1912) and especially Peyo Yavorov (1878-1914) who we can relate to symbolism.
		The interwar years were marked by two storywriters, Elin Pelin (1877-1949) and Yordan Yovkov (1880-1937), whilst Geo Milev (1895-1925), Hristo Smirnenski (1898-1923), Nikola Vapcarov (1909-1942) resurrected militant poetry.
		As for theatre, in the 1970’s, people like Yordan Radichkov, who, combining popular traditions and satire, created a new comedy style, close to absurd theatre (A sky turned upside down), and Stanislav Stratiev, who, in the same way, makes fun of the bureaucracy (Suede Jacket, 1978 ; The Bulgarian Model, 1984).
