Abstract: This chapter explores the representation of the 1960s student movement in contemporary German literature. The theoretical frame for my analysis is informed by the discourse on remembering and forgetting, storytelling and silence. While my research is part of a larger project, in this essay I am focusing on the representation of the United States and the American-German relationship within the literary representations of 1968.
