Narrative intrigue in the nodal structure of B. Pasternak's novel “Doctor Zhivago”

The article puts forward the idea that the single plot turned out to be blurred even more than it usually happens in narratives of this type in the plot structure of B. Pasternak's “Doctor Zhivago” that is the structure of the nodal type (not a linear narrative but a rhizomatic network of nodes in which the plot is concentrated). As a result, the united textual plot intrigue is replaced, on the one hand, by the network of autonomous intrigues located in nodes and united not by the single axis of events but by interrelations in the set of leitmotifs that permeate the text on the levels of functions and narration. On the other hand, the plot intrigue was practically fully replaced by the narrative intrigue, i.e. the event of narrating in many cases.
