Abstract

Aim. The aim of the study is to establish the modern views on women’s prose as a phenomenon of the literature of the XX–XXI century.
Methodology. Several approaches to the concept of women’s prose are considered. Use is made of descriptive and comparative methods, as well as of a set-theoretic approach.
Results. It is shown that women’s prose is actively developing and has several typical features that manifest themselves not only as idiosyncratic ones: expressiveness, psychologism, attention to off-plot elements, parables, intertextuality, a combination of social and deeply personal, intimate, cruel realism, lyricism, etc.
Research implications. The work is of practical importance for the formation of an idea of the gender type of prose as an evolving direction in modern literature.
