The general and distinctive features in the plot-compositional basis of the novels, psychology of the characters, portrait-landscape aspect, exteriors and interiors, author’s speech and so on are allocated. A special attention is paid to the peculiarities of their artistic method, such as realistic- naturalistic (A. Barbus and E. Remark) and realistic-romantic (O. Gonchar). In the study of cross-cutting artistic details, repeated epithets or words of the same root, the same type of tropes, images, symbols or language-gesture behavior of the characters traced the specifics of the artistic structure of the anti-war novels of these authors. In addition, the key words of the novels, which serve as generalized forms of figurative consciousness, as well as their influence on the metaphorical and philosophical-moral essence of the works, are studied. The features of the speech structure of the novels, qualification vocabulary and their role in the thematic interpretation in line with the author’s position are also studied. The images-symbols, which are determined by the specific historical circumstances of the war, its tragic collisions and black-and-gray coloristic, which draws into the zone of symbolic influence of the row of details that determine the level of reality, are characterized in the article. The process of combining of the journalistic layers with emotional-confessional intonations directly related to the personal world of the writers who recreated a specific diagram of the soldier’s soul in all its manifestations is studied. It is traced that in the analyzed novels the significant role is played by the color epithets, which are perceived along with other details and images simultaneously in two plans — concrete and symbolic, that perform the main semantic load.
