Abstract
On detailed investigating the structure, problems, and images of the novel we discovered that the novel is built on the antithesis (adults` world and children`s world, conformism and nonconformism, the freedom of expression and standardization). The protagonist contrasts with his family and his environment. The protagonist`s views contrast with conventional views. His desires are also contrasting what causes his inner conflict. A conclusion is made that contrast in the investigated novel gives an impulse to the development of both inner and outer conflicts, emphasizes social problems, deepens psychologism, makes the plot development more dynamic and makes the artistic effect stronger.
