Summary/Abstract: This article looks into the presence of irony in the artistic output of Olga Mukhina. This notion is not only a literary de- vice in the playwright’s plays, but above all, a way of thinking of the postmodern man. The ironic component and the accompanying categories of carnivalisation and play are used by Mukhina to highlight the impression of the instability of the postmodern world, for instance, through illogical, seemingly incoherent and ironic dialogues of the characters. The following works were analysed: Tanya-Tanya, You and Flying.
