Abstract

The purpose of the article is to analyze the novel by Victor Pelevin Generation “P” in the context of the theory of “fluid modernity” by the Polish philosopher and sociologist Zygmunt Bauman. Both the Russian writer and the Polish scientist point out the negative effects of the modern - unusually flexible, fluid, free from borders and conditions - commercial civilization on a person’s daily life, his mentality, value system, self-identification and selfesteem.
