Abstract
The paper focuses on a particular kind of literary representations of food, namely the “solidarity meals” described by Alois Wierlacher. They are analysed in three prose works: Ingeborg Bachmann’s Der Fall Franza (1965-1966), Gunter Grass’ Die Blechtrommel (1959) and Friedrich Durrenmatt’s Die Panne (1956.) These literary representations foster the recognition of a utopian dimension of brotherhood, and at the same time they show ex negativo the society in which the characters live.
