Abstract

Suren Ayvazyan's fiction is one of the remarkable pages of Armenian Modern literature of the latest period and stands out for its subtle psychological penetrations, uncomplicated style of narration, unique manifestations of language thinking. The heroes of his stories, novelettes and novels are presented in different dimensions of space and time: the chaos of the 18th century, the times of the feverish search for "The Armenian Road", pre-Soviet Armenia, economic recovery, and the Great Patriotic War. In those works, although the actions take place in different spatial dimensions, their basin is Zangezur, which apparently completes the miniature of Armenia. For Ayvazyan, the people of his birthplace, its unique colors and aromas were a constant source of enthusiasm and heartfelt inspiration. In the nature of Khndzoresk, the writer searched for the heroes of his stories, novelettes and novels - natural people who were and always remained pure before society and especially before their conscience. The heroes of Ayvazyan's stories and novels have their own prototypes, which the author knew very well and knew in his childhood. They are wise people with years of life experience, people with a thousand and one worries and pains, prominent personalities that generalize the image of time. There is no imaginary story in Ayvazyan's short stories and novels, and the most characteristic thing for a writer is that he is able to find what is distinctive and typical for these people and to make it fictional with great skills. Finally, there is no doubt that it is the right time for S. Ayvazyan's rich literary legacy should be thoroughly and systematically examined in literary studies.
