This article has a review and analytical nature. On the example of various Kazakhstani studies — scientific articles, dissertation materials, monographs — the research interest in the novel of A.Zh. Zhaksylykov "Dreams of the cursed" was analyzed. The publications of 2015–2022 were taken as the basis. The intertextual connections of the novel and the author's relationship with mythopoetics and philosophy in the pages of the novel were structured. The text of the novel is very complex and multidimensional, which is what stimulates a great interest of researchers in the novel. The author presents the research data that in the making of the novel the references not only to the Turkic, but also to the European myths, folklore, as well as to the Russian and European literature were used. Attention is also paid to the phenomenon of the bilingual writer.
