Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the problem of the event and everyday life in short stories from the 30-ies of XX century. The main points are: the road, the accident, the holiday and the art.

Therefore, the article concentrate on the different strategies of the man to overcome the emptiness of the everyday life and it shows that the only strategy that is successful, although in a paradoxical way, appears in the form of art.
