Summary/Abstract: From the study of the prosaic opus works of Musa Ramadani it can be concluded that the literary creativity of this author is complex both in structural construction and in ideas. Thematically, it is rich in topics that are treated from the perspective of the characters, thus bringing a complex picture of topics such as love, life, death, loneliness, revenge, displacement, etc. These topics that begin in short stories and then in novels take other dimensions and are extensively addressed. Ramadani’s narration is one of the most important and complex aspects developed from the perspective of the narrator who sometimes speaks in the first person and sometimes in the third, alongside the omniscient narrator. In his opus, the characters are the bearers of the narrative and in function of the event and the time the writer places the events, while the episodic characters are in function of the main ones, so their role is only to highlight the main characters. Characters in Ramadani’s opus in the most of the cases are not introduced by full name and surname, but we know them by their occupation, which was one of the features of twentieth century literature. The writer in his work creates a fictional reality based on Albanian reality, and this can be seen from the themes, characters, places, space and time he writes about and the autobiographical elements that Ramadani does not spare in his work, which emerge as fragments from work to work to show us what his childhood, youth, marriage, his favorite writers, music, paintings and even his state of health were like. Knowing these autobiographical elements the reader becomes close to the author gaining not only sympathy for him, but also being amazed by the abundant information that this author has.
