Abstract
The article deals with the study of political satire in the novel “Andrew’s brain” by E. L. Doctorow as the fiction of postmodernism in literature. Such principles of its poetics as anachronisms, postmodern sensibility, and fragmentation and mosaic structure were revealed. The author attempts to determine the main characteristics of the writer’s style as representation of postmodernism. “Andrew’s Brain” is novel-memory book, a retrospective, in which the protagonist looks back over his life to figure out how he came to be wherever he is. The book is constructed as a conversation, with someone doing most of the talking and someone doing most of the listening. Troubled man is asked to recognize that he has been responsible for disasters all his life, without having meant to do harm.
