Results. The paper presents the genre system of V. Dragunsky’s short stories, shows the main types of short stories and their subtypes on specific examples, and discusses the typical characters in each type of short story.

Research implications. The theoretical significance  of the work lies in identifying the genre specificity of V. Dragunsky’s stories.  The results of the research can be used to study the problem of the genre specificity of V. Dragunsky’s  short stories and his creative heritage. The practical significance  of the study is associated  with the possibility  of using the materials and conclusions for further study  of V.
