Here at least one general “guide”:

Practitioners; again and again W. Borchert (“Die Küchenuhr”, “Das Brot” u.a.), Peter Bichsel (“San Salvador”), Böll (among others “Die uncounted Geliebte”), G. Wohmann (“Känsterle”), I. Aichinger (“Das Window-Theater”) and and…

Kafka : (I would of course also be a possibility.

For best knowledge and conscience, but without guarantee!

The analysis, interpretation criteria are hopefully known to you?!

– no introduction, directly in action,

– open end,

– Voltage curve, altitude, turning point (in the drama “Peripetie” = recurring action),

– assembly technique (pre- and back-visors),

– Savings of language to intended monotony, WEIL (!) :

– Everyday events (so everyday language),

– often anonymity of the main characters (he/she/the man/the woman),

– sometimes (!!) extremely short sentences, half sets —-> Fetzenstil especially at Borchert (“Trümmer-Literatur”),

– Word repetitions, rhetorical means………….
