Contemporary Kazakh prose is still experiencing the powerful influence of Auezov's artistic traditions. The
paper reveals the importance of the early works of Mukhtar Auezov, in which the establishment of the main
ideological, artistic and aesthetic qualities of Kazakh Soviet literature occurs at the initial stage with their
subsequent deepening. The depth of insight into the inner spiritual world of a person, the scale in the sociohistorical reflection of reality, the skill in recreating the image of a person in prose – these signs of mature,
artistic thinking were inherent in M. Auezov's early works. The scientific novelty of the paper is determined by
the insufficient study of M. Auezov's early prose in these aspects. From the point of view of psychologism and
the concept of person, the period of the 1930s in the works of M. Auezov differs significantly from the period of
the 1920s. The portrayal of a new person actively building a socialist society, defending the homeland from class
enemies, evolving morally and psychologically in the process of creating a new world, becomes the main task in
Auezov's works in the 1930s. As the analysis of M. Auezov's works of the 1920s and 1930s reveals, the
peculiarities of the development of his prose of these stages cannot be explained by the theory of evolutionary
ascent from descriptiveness, psychologism to in-depth psychologism and mastery of psychological analysis.
