Dance on Shards

Published by Diogenes as Scherbentanz
Original Title: Scherbentanz

Jesko is a freak, a young fashion designer who likes to wear skirts. He doesn’t conform to social norms and restraints - he has leukaemia, and doesn’t have long to live. Under a pretense, Jesko is lured to his family’s upper-class villa. His mother is being considered as a bone marrow donor, but Jesko refuses her help.
Because, long ago, this woman treated him and his brother terribly.

With Chris Kraus’ irresistible black humour and wit.

»In its merciless reckoning, in its disclosure of domestic madness, but also in its descriptions of emotional moments, this is a timelessly relevant book.«
