The article is devoted to the ontological analysis of texts of A. Platonov. The writer represents a classical motive of an orphanhood. We analyze it by means of concepts and Y. Kristeva's ideas about search of the lost motherhood. The problem of replacement by the European rationality maternal leaves open a question of the status of this “forced-out” space. It was present by concept a heterotopiya of M. Foucault who is necessary for conceptualization of the hidden, forced out space maternal in the text. In emotionally various texts “Gian” and “Tchevengur” we analyze aspiration of the main characters of texts to overcome an orphanhood, not in a trivial context of connection with the father, and in search of mother and realization of its stay – return to a womb – short circuits of process of the birth and symbolical overcoming of death. We approve to use of categorical base of psychoanalysis and philosophical concepts, when we analyze the literary text. Distinction of two analyzed texts in the course of overcoming of an orphanhood represents aspiration to creation of a happy utopia in the Soviet reality of contradictory 30th years.
