Abstract: The article is referred to the sphere of cognitive linguistics and presents an attempt to describe the basic metaphorical models representing the concept of MIND in the modern fiction. The work is based on the definition of metaphor as a means of conceptualization and a unique cognitive mechanism that serves to represent abstract concepts that do not have any reference in the object world. The research introduces the analysis of metaphors in which the concept of MIND is the target domain that finds its language manifestation in the paradigm of images that summarize modern understanding of human mind and its operation in creative writing.
