A verse line in the prose of V. Aksenov
Abstract
The following article deals with specificity of the verse strategies in the prose of Vasily Aksenov. In the article we compare the short novel «The Colleagues» (1959) and the novel «The burn» (1975) both written in soviet period and take notice of the authors strategy of combining verse and prose in his literature works. In his early prose Aksenov used traditional verse forms noticeably diving them from prose, yet in the novel «The burn» he combined the forms in different ways increasing the variety of verse strategies and their usage in the narration and putting more sense in them.
