Abstract
The essay evaluates Karin Struck’s autobiographical novel Klassenliebe as radicalization of the autobiographical discourse in the seventies, which on his part is understood as specific form of confessional literature. The analysis of the themes, forms and intentions of Klassenliebe points out that the text has developed the rhetorical technique of confessum further into the poetics of writing naked. This kind of poetics constitutes a model of reflection which makes a distinction between a (new) kind of literature for everybody and a (traditional) kind of literature for the happy few. While executing this distinction in a dynamic way, a specific form is being emerged, typical for the seventies. This form tries to link private life to politics.
