Michael Lentz’s MOTHERDYING, winner of the Ingeborg Bachmann Prize, is a haunting novella that confronts the pain of losing a mother. Translated into English for the first time, it chronicles a dying body and a grieving mind, interwoven with raw, unfiltered memories. Evoking the avant-garde spirit of Samuel Beckett and Ornette Coleman, MOTHERDYING is a groundbreaking work in contemporary German literature.
