💡🪻We hope you’ll join us to celebrate the release of Wolfgang Koeppen’s THE HOTHOUSE and DEATH IN ROME (out May 5) in Michael Hofmann’s translations. These final two works, introduced by Joshua Cohen and Pankaj Mishra, conclude Koeppen’s masterful postwar trilogy.🐏🌷

“You can sense his double consciousness in the book’s many observations on racial difference, which encompass crude generalizations about physiognomy and gastronomical customs.”—Andrew Chan on Qian Zhongshu’s 1947 novel “Fortress Besieged” @NewDirections 4columns.org/chan-andrew/fo…

“One of the great reading experiences of my life... Taken together, The Trilogy of Failure captures a lifetime of inertia, of feckless starts and stops. Beautiful, wise, bleak and unsparing.” —Dustin Illingworth, The New York Times nytimes.com/2026/04/28/boo…

“A triumph, a gem of postwar German literature that has remained obscure in the Anglophone world for too long…ribald, irreverent, cutting, rhapsodic, and ultimately devastating portraits of German amnesia and hypocrisy.” —Becca Rothfeld, The New Yorker newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…
