Bykov's retrospectives are complex, the author examines several time layers. The concept of time causes the destruction of the plot, which cannot be restored in chronological (plot) sequence. The depiction of time and space used by the writer makes it possible to reveal the character of a person in an extreme situation as concisely and convincingly as possible. The result of the analysis is the conclusion that the stories of V. Bykov are a significant stage in the evolution of artistic thinking.
