GO GONE WENT - JENNY ERPENBECK KARTONIERT (TB)

'Vital... [Erpenbeck] is asking a compelling and timely question' Sally Rooney  Irish Times   
Richard has spent his life as a university professor  immersed in the world of books and ideas.
Recently retired  he steps into the streets of his city  Berlin  and discovers a new community.
A tent city has grown up on Oranienplatz  established by African asylum seekers. Hesitantly
getting to know the people there  Richard finds his life changing  as he begins to question his
own sense of belonging in a city that once divided its citizens into them and us.    At once a
passionate contribution to the debate on race  and a beautifully written examination of an
ageing man's quest for meaning  Go  Went  Gone showcases one of the great contemporary European
novelists at the height of her powers.     'Profound  beautiful and deeply affecting... [An]
extraordinary novel  bearing unflinching testament to history as it unfolds' Neel Mukherjee 
New Statesman     'One of Europe's most highly regarded writers... Erpenbeck's most significant
work to date' Financial Times
