Description
"A mercilessly funny search for identity that spares nothing and nobody. Anyone who has ever asked themselves who they actually are (and why), will not only be smarter after reading it -- they're also guaranteed to be in a better mood." -Alina Bronsky, author of The Hottest Dishes of the Tartar Cuisine "A combination of campus novel, intellectual chamber play, blogosphere romp and satire in identity politics. You'll laugh out loud at least three times on each page. Mithu Sanyal has an incredible talent for showing both the effects of freedom of thought pushed to the extreme and the limits of discourse." -Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung "Sanyal actually manages to pack the whole identity-politics debate into one story -- and in such a way that you have to laugh on almost every page." -ZDF "Sanyal portrays her characters in the labyrinth of identity politics with elegance, delicious humor and deep knowledge of the issues. A book for our times." -Der Tagesspiegel
