The article analyzes the interpretation of the phenomenon of time in the novel by M. Shishkin “The Letter Book”, in which the most ancient and modern scientific and philosophical concepts are refracted. The author pushes the limits of the novel world to the scale of universe. Time is interpreted not only as a measure of earthly life, the coordinates of human existence, biological cyclicity, but also as a cosmic phenomenon. Nature and the cosmos are spiritualized in the novel, the universe is understood as a harmonious and reasonable system. Eternity and immortality in the “Letter Book” are not abstract, but actually exist in the world itself.
