En 'Fuck America', Edgar Hilsenrath nos presenta a Jakob Bronsky, un personaje que recién llegado a Estados Unidos, se encuentra deambulando por el sórdido Nueva York de los años 50, rodeado de vagabundos y prostitutas. Incapaz de comprender el 'American Way of Life' ni el sueño americano, Bronsky se obsesiona con dos cosas: satisfacer sus deseos sexuales y escribir una novela sobre su experiencia en los guetos judíos. Con situaciones extravagantes, diálogos ingeniosos y un humor mordaz, Hilsenrath nos ofrece una mirada crítica y satírica a la sociedad estadounidense.
Edgar Hilsenrath was a German-Jewish writer and Holocaust survivor. He wrote several novels that gave an unvarnished view of the Holocaust which were partly based on his own experiences in a Nazi concentration camp. His main works are Night, The Nazi and the Barber, and The Story of the Last Thought. After fleeing Nazi Germany in 1944, he lived in Palestine and France, before settling in New York City in 1951 where he lived for 24 years and published his first novels. Although he was a naturalized United States citizen, he chose to return to Germany in 1975 where he lived until his death in 2018.
