Work on the novel was conducted from the mid-1960s to the end of the author's life in 1978. The first edition carried out in Izhevsk in 2017. The objective of the study is to describe the genre of the work. The results of the study: in the shell of the memoir text (memoirs of Dion), the author concludes genre models developed by European literature, since ancient times. As a result, the life of Dion is presented as an adventurous story, placed within the framework of a sophistic novel, a novel of trial, a novel of upbringing, a psychological novel, a novel-utopia, a philosophical novel. The interaction of these genre models is aimed at ensuring that the history of the ancient man's life is presented as a universal way for mankind to gain freedom and happiness.
