Shocked Earth is the translation of Saskia Goldschmidt’s novel Schokland (Coseee, 2018)
Praise for the novel:
A powerful and moving story of love, loss and determination to look ahead to the future – Ben Smith, author of Doggerland
Exquisitely captures the way our lives and identities are interwoven with the land…and how its destruction will ultimately be our own. A powerful portrait of a family, an exploration of love and grief…I was heartbroken and inspired – Helen Sedgwick
Both exciting and moving from the very first page. This is one of those rare books that gives you the feeling while reading that is has always existed…reads as an already classic novel- Herman Koch
