Summary/Abstract: The article examines the connection between fine arts and literature, and compares the naivist style of the painting and poetics of Yordan Radichkov in order to explain the emergence of a new phenomenon in the artistic style of the writer and the Bulgarian fiction of the 1960s – the collection Svirepo Nastroenie (Fierce Mood). The analyzed examples from the writer’s stories reveal correspondences with typical features of naivist painting – emphasis on detail, naivist mixing of distant images, and unmasking fear by interweaving comic and grotesque elements in the plot picture.
