    Annotation The article examines the role of the word colors in the creation of the symbolic image of the Forest in the short novel by A. N. and B. N. Strugatsky The Snail on the Slope. The authors believe that the prism of coloratives helps to make a meaningful analysis of the work and can be constructed including taking into account linguistic and extralinguistic factors. This methodological research principle allows the authors to consider the individual text as an integral literary system in which a relatively complete image of the world with the help of a color background is created and a certain aesthetic conception of the reflected reality is embodied. The paper gives the examples of how A. N. and B. N. Strugatsky expand the color semantics of green and yellow. In the description of the Forest, along with the traditional interpretation of the green in the Christian culture as “earthly” and meaning life, spring, the flowering of nature, other culturally marked connotations of this color are also reflected. The use of the same green color and its shades tearing away any interference into its world strengthens in the picture of the heroes' world the fear of the unknown and unexplored, and “strange”. In conclusion, the authors note that the analysis of two lexical and semantic fields of green and yellow allows the researcher of the writers' language to construct a kind of concept model that can be a special fragment of the individual linguistic image of the world. As a special feature being characteristic of the Strugatsky's idiostyle the authors noticed the desire to penetrate into the most important problems of existence of man, to determine his place in this world, as well as a desire to help a person to make the right choice without losing himself in this world.
