V nalogi tako najprej predstavimo postapokaliptični žanr, ki se ga navadno prišteva k znanstveni fantastiki. Orišemo njegove značilnosti in kratko zgodovino, poseben poudarek je na tradiciji postapokaliptične literature v Rusiji. V romanu so razvidne tudi poteze literarne antiutopije, zato v nadaljevanju naloge pregledamo pojav, razvoj in glavne lastnosti antiutopične literature. Tudi tu je posebna pozornost namenjena zgodovini antiutopije v ruski literaturi. V zadnjem delu naloge skušamo na podlagi določenih elementov, kot so čas in okolje, v katerega je postavljena zgodba, glavni junak in družba, ki se je vzpostavila v svetu romana, dokazati, da obravnavano delo vsebuje prvine tako postapokaliptične kot tudi antiutopične literature.
