Berlin Atomized

""Berlin Atomized is a globetrotting romp, a contra-hegemonic assault on the bullshit of a decaying, cowardly bourgeoisie seeking comfort in a history that never quite ended and a moving, even harrowing bildungsroman."" —Federico Perelmuter, Full Stop ★ ""Capturing a lost generation that feels both timeless and particular in its ironic fatalism and its various intellectual, artistic, and political responses to a broken world, this novel will be of interest to the international literary community. / A striking debut from a new global voice."" —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) ""A slyly adventurous book with markings of Jennifer Egan’s A Visit From the Goon Squad . . . Berlin Atomized constantly surprises and charms."" —Sam Franzini, Our Culture ""Argentine writer Kornberg debuts with an evocative portrait of disaffected youth and an unsettling, war-torn near future . . . Readers will look forward to seeing what Kornberg does next."" —Publishers Weekly ""Remarkable, tender, funny...[Berlin Atomized is] a novel in fragments floating in the great events of immanent youth.” —Pola Oloixarac, author of Mona “A punk song of lost innocence and the madness of history, this brilliant debut brings a new name, and a potent style, to the table: Julia Kornberg.” —Carlos Fonseca, author of Austral “Ironic and always brilliant, tender and at the same time ruthless, with dazzling intelligence and whip-like sentences that showcase truth in every paragraph, this novel by Julia Kornberg imagines, invokes and exorcises the ghosts of her generation.” —Federico Falco, author of A Perfect Cemetery
