In difference from his early works, the novel, being published after the writer's death, contain more descriptions than all of the rest of his works. The descriptions in the novel are poor, without embellishment.

The novel reflects the life events of the writer and some pages of history. E. Hemingway created a character very similar to him. It is assumed that by giving the character peculiar to him in so many features, the writer also gave him some of his thoughts. Just as Thomas Hudson, the writer had three sons which tragically died. He lived at the sea, created masterpieces, went fishing and drank a lot of strong drinks. He took part in the war described in the novel, fought against fascism, hunted submarines on his boat near Cuba and, at last, disappointed about everything, died. So the actions of Thomas Hudson and his crew in the novel to a certain extent based on personal experiences of Ernest Hemingway.

Creating pictures he used the methods of Impressionism. It was expressed in the ability to carry the whole, the overall impression by described details. Short, smart sentences of the writer is an analogue of light, separate pure color swabs of Impressionists, which from a distance seem to be a real life full of moods and changes. As in the paintings of the Impressionists, every scene is described by Hemingway, whether a portrait, a landscape or a history of the past, everything becomes a kind of unity of subjective and objective principles, not only taken the impression from the outside, but also colored by the mood of the artist.

Like the Impressionists often wrote a series of papers on one topic or one species under different lighting and mood, Hemingway also has his favorite pictures. of impressionistic manner of writing is crisp and clean single stroke, which is typical for the creative manner of Hemingway. His style is characterized by simplicity and clarity of details. Hemingway seldom uses similes and metaphors in his early works, and this principle remains with him on the pages of his late works. And those comparisons and metaphors, which Hemingway did use, as a rule, perform a limited function: just refinement of vision a thing.

In the novel, there are two kinds of dialogues. In its syntactic structure, they do not differ from solitary monologues, sometimes pronounced at the time when no one can hear them, so their structure is kind of programmatic statements of the protagonist.

The second type of dialogues includes those ones which hide the true state of the character inside them. The appearance of such dialogues in the novel is called for by “the inner demand of activity, use of energy, filling the vacuum, which a man can't bear. It may be kind of the most affordable substitute for action, and sometimes pointless. To protect against inactivity, boredom, emptiness any perception, any memories, associations, surfaced on the surface of the ceaseless flow of fragments of inner speech can be used”.

In the novel “Islands in the Stream” of everything going on in the soul of the character, the reader learns from his internal monologue, a kind of “word of mouth”. Here we can observe the intersection of the author's words and the word of the character, which is reflected even at the level of syntax. The author often expresses his thoughts by the mouth of his character.

The narration in the novel always go from the third person, but a sense of nearness of the character and the author, their thoughts is so full that we have the impression that either Thomas Hudson thinks about himself from the third person, or Ernest Hemingway says of himself, as of Thomas Hudson.

Despite the important role of inner speech of the character in the novel “Islands in the Stream” (possibly due to the incompleteness of the book) it can be seen that the structure of the novel at this stage of its creation contains some author characteristics of his characters that the writer did not have time to develop in their actions. Thus, in the result of hard work at the set problem, the aim of the research work was completely achieved.
