ROLE OF THE DOCUMENT IN NOVEL NARRATION

Abstract

. The main attention is paid to the analysis of features of documentary prose in a literary text, which is being introduced into scientific circulation for the first time. Sh. Mikailov’s novel is dominated by the type of plot construction, in which the external event series is in the foreground. It is shown that the author was able to organically synthesize diverse material: factual, historical-cognitive, artistic. The work is replete with information related to the events of the period of perestroika. The mechanism of action of a new type of state machine with its main participants unfolds before the reader. This work is distinguished by its focus on reflecting the vicissitudes of an individual’s life in the context of new historical realities for the country, in aesthetic terms – on normativity, the averageness of visual resources and language, the inexpressiveness of the author’s personal beginning. The author’s goal is to analyze the specific moods of the time, which found a refraction in the fate of an individual.
