«Die Hungrigen und die Satten» is Timur Vermes's social satire, published by Eichborn in hardback (509 pages, in German).
In a future Europe that has closed its borders and keeps millions of refugees in camps on the other side of the Sahara, presenter Nadeche Hackenbusch and young Lionel cross paths when 150,000 people set out on a march towards the continent. The novel combines satire and black humour to expose the media spectacle, political inaction and society's contradictions in the face of the migration crisis.
Published in 2018, the novel is by the same author as 'Er ist wieder da', as noted on the cover.
For readers interested in political satire, dystopian fiction and stories about migration.
