In this paper, by way of comparing Atanas Dalchev's “Fragmentsˮ with some of his individual poems, written in the period 1920s – 1960s, we will try to trace how old age gets (re)interpreted, including the causes of aging. Another aim is to bring out the author's preferred images through which he visualizes and concretizes his ideas about old age and about life in general.
