Abstract

This article attempts to look at the early novelistic work of Pelevin through the prism of Carl Gustav Jung's analytical psychology. Such a view is justified by the intra-textual signals contained by the writer in his works - as shown on the example of the novel Chapayev and Void (1996). Extending the scope of research to other works by Pelevin - from Omon Ra (1992) to Empire V (2006) with a special focus on Generation P (1999) – made it possible to show the psychological thematic core of the writer's work, i.e. the process of individuation, also central to Jung's thought.
