The article is devoted to the technique of psychoanalytic literary interpretation in Ukrainian literary criticism. The article deals with the importance and relevance of psychoanalytic narrative’s research. The specificity of the adaptation of psychoanalysis to the Ukrainian cultural space is defined. The basic milestones in the formation and development of psychoanalytic research in Ukrainian literary criticism from the early XX to XXI centuries are given and the main stages of the psychoanalytic school in Ukraine are also outlined. The expediency of studying psychoanalysis as a method of research and interpretation of contemporary fiction literature is proved. The detailed review of Ukrainian researchers’ critical works on the application of psychoanalysis in the study of the writers’ personality and creative works is realized to justify its use to contemporary literature. A lot of attention is paid to works that are appearing in Ukrainian literary and theoretical discourse in recent years (works of S. Pavlychko, N. Zborovska, M. Ilnytskyi, T. Hundorova, M. Moklytsia, I. Zherebkina, A. Pecharskyi, A. Bidiuk and others). They allow to extend the range of psychoanalytic studies involved in literary criticism. The main task of literature of recent decades is clearly outlined. An analysis of the effectiveness of psychoanalytic methodology is trying to be made. According to this aim it is proposed to pay attention to the works of contemporary literature that are written using the psychoanalytic implication (works of N. Zborovska, O. Zabuzhko, E. Kononenko). The discursive method is used in research.
