Russian Fiction in the First Decade of the XXI Century: Confession of the Professional

Anna Podkovalnikova

ABSTRACT: 

Modern Russian literature is characterized, inter alia, by an increase of interest to an individual, not because of its outstanding features and talents, but, on the contrary, due to the fullness of its common life. Large number of representatives of various professions came into literature. In this article, an attempt is made to characterize the key works of A. Malatov, T. Solomatina, A. Astvatsaturov and A. Dezhurov in order to identify the typological features of “professionals” prose.

Keywords: prose of “professionals”; realism; naturalism; diary; network literature; confession; individualization; typical image.
