The paper explores particular stylistic features in the novel Nebo, tako duboko by Vesna Kapor, which are based on cumulating and separating lexical items. In addition, repetitions of identical or varied units and sentences, both contactual and distant, as one of the specific stylistic features of the novel are analysed as well. The most distinc- tive feature is the markedness of punctuation, especially commas, that deviates from the norm. Although the structure of the novel is polyphonic, from the point of view of linguo- stylistics the text is not differentiated. From the beginning to the end of the novel, cu- mulating and combining different stylistic features is prevailing, which results in a highly emotional language, with a broken rhythm, predominantly marked by pain and sadness
