Summary/Abstract: This article constitutes an attempt at engaging two works, namely Untitled Novel („Роман без заглавие“) by Dimitar Dimov and Adriana („Адриана“) by Teodora Dimova – both revisiting the same image, in a dialogue. The study dwells on the feminine presence and metamorphoses of Adriana, a central character in both Dimov and Dimova’s plots. The differences between the image of Adriana in Dimitar Dimov and that in Teodora Dimova are traced. The ways the feminine is embodied in the father – daughter artistic project remain a matter of debate and require thematic broadening.
