On the occasion of Suhrkamp’s publication of Ulrich Blumenbach’s German translation, Der Dreh von Inkarnation, alongside the release of new paperback editions of two of McCarthy’s previous novels, K and Satin Island, Suhrkamp Verlag and DAAD Artists-in-Berlin Program are delighted to announce Inkarnationswochenende, to run March 31st-April 1st, 2023: a weekend of discussions, performances and debates by artists and academics on and around the novel’s themes.
