Description

Not a Novel is the best of Jenny Erpenbeck's non-fiction. Moving and insightful, the pieces range from personal essays and literary criticism to reflections on Germany's history, interrogating life and politics, language and freedom, hope and despair. By turns both luminous and explosive, this collection shows one of the most acclaimed European writers reckoning with her country's divided past, and responding to the world today with intelligence and humanity.

Media Reviews

The most profound, intelligent, humane, and important writer of our times... This is real literature: alive, vital, necessary, witty, beautiful, transformative -- Neel Mukherjee
Fearless, playful, incisive. Erpenbeck is unique -- Rachel Seiffert
One of Europe's most highly regarded writers, perpetually striving to create an artistic prism through which to interpret history's arc... -- Catherine Taylor * Financial Times *
The strength of this collection is in how it upends many of our perceptions of life in the GDR and what the fall of the Berlin Wall means to those who experienced it * New European *
A wonderfully gripping story that ventures fearlessly into some pretty dark family secrets to tell the story of a Europe you won't find in conventional history books * New European *
