Marie Darrieussecq once said that her writing was "a metaphor for our world, which today is a pure pigsty". Her debut novel "Schweinerei" (1996) became a cult book in France and she has long been a star across national borders. In her new novel, she has the passengers of a luxury cruise ship, including psychologist Rose and her adolescent children, meet survivors of a capsized refugee boat in the Mediterranean. "Das Meer von unten" (Secession // in German by Patricia Klobusiczky) puts its finger in the wound of our present. A brilliant literary school of empathy.
