Much has been said about literary criticism, so I will not repeat things that are already known, but will dwell only on one poorly concealed detail in connection with the flight of criticism from contemporary problems and phenomena. It is a well-known fact that there are some writers in our country who, even during their lifetime, have secured for themselves the indisputable right to be considered classics. Elevated by a fortunate coincidence of circumstances to an honorable height, these dubious idols with modest talent are typical continuers of the cult of personality. Their obvious creative failures and weaknesses are not only generously kept quiet, but are even the subject of constant praise from critics. Their works are published and republished in mass circulations on a non-stop conveyor belt, distributed in schools and educational circles, and are crammed into the defenseless minds of readers along with the works of Botev, Vazov, Yovkov, Elin Pelin. If any critic dares to doubt the immortality of these pseudo-classics - woe to him. All kinds of slander, slander and false accusations are immediately poured against him, and the unfortunate man is deprived of even the opportunity to seek satisfaction through the courts, because it is "inconvenient" to publicly darken the halo of the officially recognized Laurel Bearer.
