MINKOV, Svetoslav

(1902-1966)

   Bulgarian writer and man of letters, active from 1920 (for contextual comments on his earliest work BULGARIA). The sf tales and FABULATIONS assembled in The Lady with the X-Ray Eyes (coll transKrassimira Noneva 1965 Bulgaria), which brings together work originally published 1928-65, are sharp, occasionally didactic, and expose a sometimes insistent irony. This text is not a translation of a 1934 Bulgarian collection with the same title.
