Abstract:
The collision of the classic "love triangle" sometimes acquired a purely dramatic character during the Great Patriotic War, when the wives of front-line soldiers, for one reason or another, turned out to Ьe connected with another man. The proposed article discusses four works that came out from the pen of the classics of Soviet literature and which are united Ьy their attempt to show and comprehend through artistic means various ways to resolve the emerging conflict while following the plausible reflection of the psychological problems of reality. The analysis focused on "The Tale of Our Time" Ьy Mikhail Prishvin, the story "Return" Ьy Andrei Platonov, the novel "Harvest" Ьy Galina Nikolaeva, and the story "In the Hometown" Ьy Viktor Nekrasov.
