In a well-appointed examination in London, a young woman unburdens herself to a certain Dr Seligman. Though she can barely see above his head, she holds forth about her life and desires, and her struggles with her sexuality and identity. Born and raised in Germany, she has been living in London for several years, determined to break free from her family origins and her haunted homeland. In a monologue that is both razor-sharp and subversively funny, she takes us on a wide-ranging journey from outré sexual fantasies and overbearing mothers to the medicinal properties of squirrel tails and the enduring legacy of shame. With The Appointment, her audacious debut novel, Katharina Volckmer challenges our notions of what is fluid and what is fixed and injects a dose of Bernhardian snark into contemporary British fiction.

    Do you think we are taught to have so much respect for our fathers, because we can never be sure that they are actually our fathers?

    Instead I always perceived people’s sizes based on their personality, the space they needed to express themselves.

    I admire nothing more than people who have found a way to love their mothers; I think it’s the biggest challenge in life, the one thing that would make the world a better place.
