«Les affamés et les rassasiés» is the satirical novel by Timur Vermes, published by Belfond in paperback (528 pages, in French).
In the near future, with European borders closed, refugee Lionel takes advantage of a German TV star's visit to organize a march of 150,000 people toward Europe. The column becomes a global media phenomenon and exposes the hypocrisy of politicians, social media, and public opinion.
Translated from German by Mathilde Julia Sobottke; the original was published in 2018 and the French edition in 2019.
Readers of political satire and contemporary fiction will find here an uncomfortable critique of migration, media, and European politics.
