Abstract

The article demonstrates how the chapter of the "Father" of the novel by A. Terts (A. D. Sinyavsky) "Good Night" is structured, shows how the image of the protagonist's father is built. The storylines of the son and father in the chapter are made in such a way that they rely on typologically similar elements, which largely determine the behavior, characters. In the fate of both, a bicycle and a gun play an important role; at the same time, they acquire new acquaintances of children; their fates were influenced by books; both are prone to invention; revolutionary, arrested. The father seems to help his son to penetrate the secrets of literary skill. The chapter "Father" is presented in such a way as to reflect judgments about literary work that Sinyavsky had a conversation with his father. The author refuses a linear, consistent narrative (for example, within several lines, events that fall on several decades may collide). The concept of mystery plays an important role in the narrative. At the same time, such a secret is important in the chapter, which will be exposed by its carriers. The original narrative in "Good Night" allows you to control both the narrator's awareness of the father and the degree of awareness of the reader. Avoiding a linear, consistent, "rational" narrative, A. D. Sinyavsky postulates the failure of such a story about human fate, where it is thought of as organically whole.
