Victor Olegovich Pelevin undoubtedly belongs to the most popular contemporary Russian writers. He is recognized as one of the leading representatives of Russian postmodernism. The purpose of this article is to show distinguishing features and characteristics of Pelevin’s “non-human beings”: at first to discuss Pelevin’s “postmodernist and eclectic” conception of “supernatural creatures”: werewolves and vampires (Pelevin deconstructs “werewolf and vampire discourses”), and secondly, to show Pelevin’s point of view on human–robot relationships. The following Pelevin’s novels are the subject of the analysis in this paper: The Sacred Book of the Werewolf (2004), Empire “V”. The Story of a Real Superman (2006), S.N.U.F.F. (2011), Batman Apollo (2013).

Mikhail Elizarov (born 1973 in Ukraine) undoubtedly belongs to the most “bizarre” and controversial contemporary Russian writers (more precisely, he is a Russian and Ukrainian writer). Elizarov is also known as a musician and a songwriter. He is the winner of literary award The Russian Booker Prize (in 2008) for his novel The Librarian (this novel was called one of the most controversial prize-winning novels). Elizarov’s literary works “balance” on the verge of postmodernist and realistic practice; the writer is known for scandalous but intellectual high-energy prose (sometimes he is compared to Nikolai Gogol, sometimes – to Vladimir Sorokin). The purpose of this article is to show and discuss distinguishing features of Elizarov’s prose, to identify central motifs and themes in his selected literary works. The story Fingernails is analyzed in this paper. Special attention is paid to Elizarov’s conception of madness and abnormality, and also to his point of view on relationship between “normal” and “abnormal” (strange, different from what is usual or expected).

Victor Pelevin’s novel Numbers published in 2003 as a main part of the book DTP /NN/. The Dialectics of the Transition Period from Nowhere into No Place is the subject of an analysis in this article. Pelevin has created in this novel the satirical and grotesque picture of Russia at the beginning of the twenty-first century, easily recognizable by readers in fine details. The main purpose of the paper is to present the story of Stepan Mikhailov’s life. He is a Russian businessman – a bank manager who runs his business with the help of mystical numerology. The man believes that numbers rule the world (he believes there is some kind of a mystical relationship between numbers and our life). From his point of view, numbers influence people’s behaviour, their decisions. “34” is Stepan’s lucky number and his invisible “adviser-protector”. Mikhailov is supposed to be a sufferer from some form of an obsessive-compulsive disorder called arithmomania. Sufferers from this disorder have a strong need to count their actions or objects in their surroundings.

Victor Pelevin belongs to the most popular and controversial contemporary Russian writers. He always leaves behind more questions than answers. Pelevin is recognized as one of the leading representatives of postmodernism in Russia. His novel Secret Views of Mount Fuji (2018) is the subject of the analysis in this paper. The plot of this novel is based on the story of three Russian oligarchs (unhappy oligarchs), who have experienced all the joys of life and begin to use a startup that offers different kinds of happiness. Pelevin pays special attention to a businessman named Fedya (Fyodor Semyonovich). The author makes a reference to the Buddhist concept of happiness and sets out in some detail the Buddhist theory of jhan – the successive stages of comprehending the highest truth. Pelevin says that everyone has their own happiness. One to achieve this state needs the truth, the other – its absence. The purpose of this article is: at first to show Pelevin’s point of view on the correlation between happiness and wealth, and secondly, to discuss Pelevin’s answers to the following questions: „what exactly is happiness?”, “is it true that money does not make us happy?”, “can we buy happiness with money?”.
