Summary/Abstract: 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.
