Summary/Abstract: Although I am currently working on a doctoral thesis about the postmodern Bulgarian novel, in the following pages I will talk about the poets of the 1980s, because they were the first to call for a change in the Bulgarian literature and brought postmodernism to Bulgaria. Although in the 1980s Bulgarian postmodernism exists in a narrow, university circle and remains largely in its theoretical phase, in the next decades it evolved and decisively influenced both poetry and novel.
