The article is devoted to certain aspects of literary impressionism. Surprisingly, impressionism as an artistic direction turned out to be in tune with texts of modern writers. The relevance of this direction manifests itself both in means of artistic information presentation and its styling. The authors consider both general theoretical and practical issues that reveal main aspects of critical debate about literary impressionism, verbal suggestiveness and suggestive strategies of an impressionist text. The novelty of this research is in the fact that suggestiveness is defined as a special feature of impressionistic poetics, and the means of creating a suggestive effect of impressionist texts are described. The mechanisms of realizing suggestiveness are analyzed using the text of the impressionist story 'La demande' by the modern French writer Michelle Desbordes. The suggestive potential of this text lies in the fact that the narrative is constructed based on free associations that cause a specific emotional response in the reader. Main ways to create suggestiveness in the impressionist work are specific lexical fields used to create the atmosphere, landscape descriptions that are a direct reflection of the inner world of characters, syntactic parallelism, and, mostly, various types of repetitions. All these means have an obvious suggestive effect, creating a certain general mood, prompting the reader to perceive described events by a certain way, inviting to co-creation.
