One wild, exhilarating night in Berlin: a brilliant new novel by one of the most acclaimed writers of our time

Sister Europe tells the story of one wild night in Berlin, as a ragtag group meet at the Hotel Interconti to celebrate an elderly author’s venerable career (all under the resolute assurance that their wealthy host will provide a free and fancy dinner). Inevitably, boredom, hunger and horniness set in, and the gang – a young trans teen and her father; an ageing publisher and his flakey date; a dog, a troubled heiress and an Arabic Prince – are flung out on an exhilarating odyssey through the city’s shadow and light.

Sophisticated, sexy and exquisitely moving, Sister Europe is a vivid tale of a scene all at sea, and a continent whorled with charm, caprice and the aches of history.

'Nell Zink is a writer of extraordinary talent and range. Her work insistently raises the possibility that the world is larger and stranger than the world you think you know' Jonathan Franzen

'Zink writes with a joyful recklessness that makes her one of the freshest talents around.’ The Guardian

'An extraordinary talent... Zink is in the company of not only Jonathan Franzen, but also Donna Tartt, Philip Roth and Tom Wolfe' Daily Telegraph
