Kole Nedelkovski

Died in 1941

Kole Nedelkovski, whose real name was Nikola Krăstev Nedelkov, was born on 16 December 1912 in Vojnica, near Veles. He left the lycée in Veles for lack of money and became a house painter. Wanted by the Yugoslav police, he crossed into Bulgaria in 1933, joined the Communist Party there and in 1939 entered the Macedonian Literary Circle. He died in Sofia on 2 September 1941, aged twenty-eight, having fallen from a skylight while fleeing the police; some speak of suicide, others of murder, and no official report settles the matter.
