The unique writer Beimbet Mailin made a significant contribution to the development of Kazakh prose in the early twentieth century. Obviously, a socialist-realistic approach prevails in his stories. The writer, who has been exposed to the difficulties of life since his childhood, described what he saw and experienced in his works with aesthetic expressions. In addition to this, it is seen that he takes care of minor issues in society, without going into the depths of history, expressing the mentality and changes of his age with deep feelings. In his stories, he not only realistic described the life of the lower and middle classes, but also critically analyzed the situation in society. In this study, we analyzed B. Mailin’s story “Shuganın belgisi” using a modern method of text analysis, which is widely used in Turkish literature, and tried to determine the literary value of the text and the views of the writer. In the course of the analysis of the text, the political and cultural views of the Kazakh people at the beginning of the twentieth century, the structure of the text, the concepts of character, time and space were analyzed, and the topic was determined. Linguistic features and writing style have been clarified.
