The present paper Narrative technique in modern novel after 1945, on the example of Alfred Andersch’ chosen prose writings (1914-1980) focuses upon novel methods of shaping the form and structure of the modern novel, and the role they play in the narrative construction of a literary work. The author presents the most significant narrative techniques such as segmentation of the novel’s text, simultaneous introduction of characters, frequent use of the so-called internal monologue to make the contemporary reader realize how picturesque is the language of literary fiction that, in the 20th C. boldly transcends the textual frames of the work.

Alfred Andersch´s autobiographical texts from the 1950s have been heavily criticized in recent literature on the topic. W.G. Sebald´s essay about Andersch was of crucial importance. The details of Andersch´s stay in the Dachau concentration camp as well as the writer´s motivation to desert at the end of the war were questioned. The article aims at a new reading of Andersch´s autobiographical texts with regard to their credibility. It compares the early short story Flucht in Eturien with the autobiography Die Kirschen der Freiheit and a few less known texts. The analysis leads to the conclusion that Andersch “re-wrote” his biography as a creation that fulfils unconscious wishes of a whole generation. His intention was to adapt the image of decent young men of antifascist beliefs whose only guilt was the loyalty to their comrades.
