{"product_id":"eurotrash","title":"Eurotrash","description":"From \"the great German-language writer of his generation\" (Joshua Cohen) comes the second novel of Christian Kracht's career narrated by an eponymous \"Christian\" (the first was his bestselling debut, \u003cem\u003eFaserland\u003c\/em\u003e). \u003cem\u003eEurotrash\u003c\/em\u003e begins in Zurich, where Christian has returned to care for his eighty-year-old mother after her discharge from a psychiatric institution. Confronting the dark shadows of his family's past--particularly his grandfather's strong ties with the Nazi regime--and struggling to navigate the emotionally wrenching terrain of his relationship with his mother, he sets off on a road trip with her. As they traverse Switzerland together in a hired cab, mother and son attempt to give away her vast fortune, stuffed in a large plastic bag, to random strangers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e By turns disturbing, disorienting, hilarious, and poignant, and brilliantly rendered in English by prize-winning translator Daniel Bowles, \u003cem\u003eEurotrash\u003c\/em\u003e tells an intensely personal and unsparingly critical story of contemporary culture; a story that shows us a writer at the pinnacle of his powers of insight and observation.","brand":"Liveright Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48122649182397,"sku":"BS-TC0-097082","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/9767\/2637\/files\/9781324097082-HD.jpg?v=1787068315","url":"https:\/\/boundigo.com\/products\/eurotrash","provider":"Boundigo Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
