Realismo, fantasia e ironia nel Literaturbetrieb: Uwe Tellkamp, Ingo Schulze, Daniel Kehlmann e Sybille Lewitscharoff

If in the wake of 1989 German-speaking literature has experienced a form of "reconceptualization" of its narratives especially featuring in the fields of family and generational novels, a further change in literary production has come to the fore over the last fifteen years. Moving beyond the urge of memory, literary practices have tended to reshape traditional genres such as the historic or the education novel (Kehlmann, Tellkamp, Schulze), mixing fantasy and irony and showing full command while playing down failures concerning the dialectical confrontation with modernity through various metafictional devices (Lewitscharoff).
