Abstract. The paper aims to determine the artistic features of the short stories about the Great Patriotic War by the Yakut writer I. M. Sosin. The study analyses the themes and issues raised in the short stories, identifies the artistic features of the works. The writer’s short prose on the theme of war has not previously been the object of special analysis. At the same time, the theme of the Great Patriotic War occupies the main place in the writer’s creative work. This fact accounts for the scientific novelty of the paper. As a result, based on the analysis, the following has been found: the theme of the Great Patriotic War is explored through the lens of the writer’s own recollections and those of participants in the events of the war years (veterans and residents of the home front, children of war); the autobiographical nature, the author’s involvement in the events described, the essay character make the short stories especially sincere and realistic; the author employs various expressive means (similes, epithets, metaphors etc.) to describe the characters’ actions and express the author’s idea; the use of proverbs, toponyms deepens the ideological content of the works.
