Summary/Abstract: Bulgarian postmodernism is a complex phenomenon, and this complexity is reflected in the intricate polyphony of literary-critical perspectives that seek to capture its essence and sometimes go so far as to deny its very existence. The article highlights some essential features and still unresolved questions of Bulgarian postmodern literature, drawing on authoritative critics and literary historians, some of whom have also played a significant role as postmodern writers. Now that we are reaching a temporal distance that is probably already sufficient for a historical-literary assessment of the phenomenon, it becomes clear that the dialogue of Bulgarian postmodernism with itself and with its own specificities remains both relevant and necessary.
