Eurotrash by Christian Kracht

In this darkly comedic novel, a middle-aged man embarks on a road trip across Europe with his eccentric and ailing mother, exploring themes of identity, family, and the remnants of a fading European aristocracy. As they journey through a continent marked by its historical scars and cultural contradictions, the protagonist grapples with his own sense of belonging and the weight of his family's past. The narrative weaves together sharp social commentary and absurdist humor, painting a vivid portrait of a Europe caught between nostalgia and modernity.
