This article deals with the problem of interrelationships between the real and imaginative time. The orientation of time in narration is defined by the feature of the linguistic means used by the author. Imaginative time is the unity of interrelationships between the author, the reader and the characters. Imaginative time is connected with perceptual time more closely rather than the real time. The main characteristic feature of the real time is the fact that it is one-dimensional. Imaginative or fiction time can be multi-dimensional. So, time relation problem is one of the most serious. It is conditioned by the fact that category of time is very complex itself and besides, it is defined as multi-aspect category.
