Pisahov” and is devoted to the study of a tale form of narration in Russian prose memoir in 1920-1230-ies of XX century. The work examines collections of essays “Ural true stories” by P.P.

We conducted an analysis of individual style of writers, singled out common features that are typical of the style of both authors and the style of ' artistic era” (A.S. Sakulin). The essays are being investigated from the point of view of stylistic devices and features of the artistic language. It is being proved that depiction is one of the most important elements of creating an artistic text in a fantasy form of narration.

The search of the verity in Platonov’s works
Abstract
The article is devoted to the search of the verity in Platonov’s oeuvre. It vents primarily in his works from the late 1920s till the mid-1930s. Being a staunch defender of communism the writer witnesses yet what a tragic life becomes after the state alters human lives, breaks the lifestyle of the people. The village breaks up, people lose their sense of the unity. The party imposes a new ideology that is not to everyone’s liking. The truth seems to be lost, but in fact it is just inconsistent with the Soviet system. Awareness of this is beyond Platonov’s strength. It is expressed in the writer’s ambivalence which he repeatedly pointed himself.

Postscript to the Novels of Elif Shafak (on the issue of the creative method)
Abstract
Two novels of the modern Turkish author Elif Shafak are analyzed in the context of the discussion about its postmodern character in Turkish and Russian literary circles. In particular, the special attention is paid to symbols used by the writer. The question if its interpretation corresponds to postmodern aesthetics or not, is discussed. The specifics of the writer’s creative method is in the focus of study. The postmodern literary techniques (intertextuality, irony, playfulness, temporal distortion, author’s mask) are applied, but not filled with postmodern aesthetic content. In opinion of the author of the article there are not enough arguments in favour of the conclusion about a postmodern nature of the novels. The considered novels demonstrate interpenetration of postmodern techniques and mass culture.
