Werner Heiduczek

[3] From January 1946, he took part in a course for so-called Neulehrer in Herzberg (Elster) and taught in the village school in Wehrhain [de] from September to November 1946.

[5] From 1953, he completed postgraduate studies in Potsdam in pedagogy and then worked in teaching again until 1961, for example 1955 to 1959 at the children's and youth sports school in Halle.

His novel Death by the Sea, the autobiographically coloured, sceptical life balance of the GDR artist Jablonski, published in 1977 by Mitteldeutscher Verlag Halle/Saale, was temporarily banned in 1978 at the intervention of the Soviet ambassador to the GDR Peter Abrassimov because of alleged anti-Soviet passages: Heiduczek's book had addressed the rape of German women by Soviet soldiers after World War II.

The funeral service took place on 21 August 2019 in Leipzig;[10] the urn was laid in the ground in Lichtentanne – at the grave site of his wife.
