The main goal of this article was to examine the role of loneliness in the short stories by Yevgeny Kharitonov, whose pieces are considered to be representative for Russian gay literature (LGBT Literature) of the Soviet period. This article explores the reasons why loneliness and its subsequent stages became the main motif of Kharitonov's literary work. The term "sterile loneliness", brought to light by Eduard Limonov, perfectly reflects the deep sense of loneliness which is the worst struggle in the main character’s life. The author of this article attempts to show the psychological figure of a lonely and love-awaiting character in the short stories by Yevgeny Kharitonov.

Limonov’s character adores to be different, he loves to shock people. He lives then with kind of an other life. From one side it gives to him a hallmark of singularities and uniquenesses, from other it is underlining intuitive - ness, which is such important to him as the base of knowledge and reasoning. This philosophy is meeting all requirements of Eddie’s “life philosophy”. Empirical knowledge the own soul, and also souls of other people is leading him to height of the success and the vital fulfilment in own antrophosphere, own existence, time and space. Ediczka is standing out, he is “different”. However the most important is fact, that Eddie - character is the same as Limonov - writer. The life and the existence of the character are becoming author’s being at the same time. There is no Eddie's existence without existing of his author - Limonov. Eduard Limonov antrophosphere’s multidimensionality has reflection in the Eddie’s form. Character, similarly as his author, is a writer, publicist, rebellious critic of political world’s order (especially his two “homelands” - America and the USSR). Analysing interviews with Limonov a striking similarity of both figures views is noticed. Tragedy of the man left by “mother - Russia” and thrown to “orphanage - America” is becoming from one side - more definitive, from second- highly deceptive and seeming.

The article is devoted to the image of war in Smrt – a collection of short stories written by Eduard Limonov. Eduard Limonov is a controversial Russian writer and politician known for his extremist worldview, scandalous literary works and involvement in the national-bolshevik movement. The action of most of the stories is set against the backdrop of the Yugoslav Wars. Limonov describes the dark sides of the war: death, suffering of civilians and atrocities, but at the same time claims that war creates an excellent opportunity to experience a fascinating adventure and to become a true hero. In his opinion, the war is completely consistent with the most basic human instincts, therefore, it is not surprising that many soldiers participate in war with enthusiasm and prefer it to a boring, stabilized life.
