The article studies a game in Lyudmila Stefanovna Petrushevskaya’s fairy tales. The Game is seen as a marker of postmodern tendencies that are present in the writer’s fictional world. The game principle in the writer’s fairy tales functions on a language level, i.e. in the use of a language game which can be seen, first of all, in the series “Linguistic fairy tales” written with made up words, but also in the use of transformation of traditional fairy tale formulas and in animating a literal meaning of idiomatic expressions. On a motive and plot level the game appears as the stage performance (fairy tales “White Kettles”, “Willow Whip”), the game of children or adults that play child’s games (the cycle “Adventures of Barbie”, dolls’ novel “Little Fairy”, The Tale of a Broom and a Stick). Petrushevskaya’s fairy tales involving readers into the world of a game (from playing with a word to the game as the life principle) are an example of adaptation of a literary fairy tale in modern times.
