I suppose you have some code in the above new() :-)

The syntax should be:
$s->field1(1);
$s->field2(2);

Better putting $s outside of double quote:
print $s->field1."\n".$s->field2."\n";

Below is your code reviewed:

package My::Module;
use strict;
use warnings;
use Class::Struct;

struct( Blah => { field1 => '$', field2 => '$'} );

sub new {
        my($caller)[EMAIL PROTECTED];
        print "normal constructor called!\n";
      my $class=ref $caller || $caller;
      my $self = {};
      bless $self => $class;       
}

sub f {
        my $s = Blah->new();
        $s->field1(1);
        $s->field2(2);
        return $s;
}

package main;

my $obj =My::Module->new();
my $s = $obj->f();

print $s->field1."\n".$s->field2."\n";


OUTPUT:

normal constructor called!
1
2
