‘Our lives do not start entirely with our births.’ Prussia, the
early 19th century. As he attempts to bury his recently deceased
wife, Redo Hauptshammer uncovers the frozen body of a uniformed
soldier. As he continues to dig, the bodies start to pile up –
all of them fallen cavalrymen bearing the secrets of an earlier
era. For readers of W. G. Sebald and Agustín Fernández Mallo,
this archaeological novel digs into Europe’s soil, uncovering a
long history of violence and expropriation. Mora’s writing is
audacious, melancholy, and formally experimental. As the bodies
proliferate, the story keeps getting more complicated. In a bold
yet lyrical translation by Rahul Bery, Centroeuropa introduces
English-speaking readers to one of Europe’s pre-eminent
experimental prose writers currently at work.
