Abstract
This article explores the complexity of character creation in literary works through a comparative analysis of Jack London’s “The Grit of Women” and Abdulla Qahhor’s “Horror”. The main characters in "Grit of Women" and “Terror” both exhibit the feminine qualities of patience and endurance, as well as an appreciation for every moment in life – reflecting a shared cultural trait between American and Uzbek societies. Both stories end tragically. Passuk sacrifices her life for her husband, symbolizing the loyalty of Native American women, while women of the past like Unsin, who would never go against their husbands' will and endure hardships, reflect a particular aspect of Uzbek culture.
