Abstract. The article analyzes the fantastic novel "Cosmorama" by the Russian philosopher and writer of the 20-40s of the XIX century V. F. Odoyevsky from the point of view of plot construction. It is concluded that the writer, according to Alexander Pushkin’s advice, is trying to change "the form of the plan". The boundary between the fantastic and the real in this story is mobile, and the transition from one plan to another takes place insensibly. The events of the irrational plan are shown as actually happened, moreover, their authenticity is confirmed by real details and phenomena of the reality. Thus, "Cosmorama" meets all the requirements of a fantastic novel.
