The article actualizes the significance of the space of the Russian estate and its features in the context of modern Russian literature. In the short story «Nastya» V. Sorokin refers to the mythologems characteristic of the manor culture, which in the analyzed work in the consciousness of the "newly minted intelligentsia" acquire a travestied meaning.
