The article examines representations of significant historical events related to the history of Kazakhstan at the beginning of the 20th century in fiction and the aesthetics of artistic decision. The main purpose of the research work is to study historical novels published after the independence of Kazakhstan, which contain events such as persecution, famine and colonial plunder caused by the brutal policies of the Soviet government in the early 20th century. At the same time, the problem of historical knowledge and artistic decision in novels based on historical events of this period is considered. The practical significance of the research topic is that the policy of mass conquest and cleansing of the Russian colonial Kazakh steppe, as well as the permanent expulsion of the people living there from their land, began in the first half of the 19th century. In the 20s of the twentieth century, such absurd policies of the Soviet government as the October Revolution, “Little October” in Kazakhstan, artificial famine called confiscation and mass collective farming, reprisals against the Reds, became the basis of the historical novel. At the same time, it is very important to study novels that describe these significant historical events of the Kazakh people in artistic language. The objective of the research work is to study historical novels that expose the atrocities of the Soviet regime against the Kazakh people. In fulfillment of this duty, among the novels that raised this topic, S. Elubay’s trilogy“Akboz uy”, Beksultan Nurzhekeuly’s novel “ay, dunie-ay” and A. Tarazi’s novel “zhaza” are analyzed. The research method is to name many novels that expose the crimes of the Soviet regime, analyze and summarize their artistic achievements. The article also used research methods such as analysis, comparison and discussion. The novelty of the research result lies in the fact that Russian colonialism is one of the darkest periods in the life of the Kazakh people, years full of terrible suffering that have become indelible history. Historical novels that reveal the reality of this pitiful condition of the people, the crime of this man-made massacre, are deeply analyzed in a comprehensive scientific style with a special theme. And the article also analyzes the relationship and skills of the writer in the one-sided acceptance of historical knowledge and artistic decisions.
