Mark Katzman’s Literary Gothic Novel “Home” Will Be Exhibited at the Frankfurt Book Fair 2023

ReadersMagnet, a leading self-publishing and book marketing firm dedicated to supporting independent authors, will display Mark Katzman’s “Home” at the 2023 Frankfurt Book Fair. The event will occur on October 18 – 22, 2023, at the Frankfurt Trade Fair grounds, Ludwig-Erhard-Anlage 1, 60327 Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

The Frankfurt Book Fair (Frankfurter Buchmesse) is an international book fair established in 1949. The book trade fair has welcomed exhibitors and visitors from more than 100 countries for the past seven decades. This year, the Frankfurt Book Fair continues to be an excellent platform for writers and book lovers to share their love for stories.

In Mark Katzman’s “Home,” the readers are led to a story of an unreliable narrator – an unnamed young man who returns home from a clinic. Uncertain whether it is his home, M’s mind gets hazier when he is welcomed by an unusual couple, who may or may not be his parents. Who are they? And why are they constantly giving him pills which cause him to hallucinate? And why is a giant scorpion on his rooftop?

The riveting novel moves forward with the trio partying: playing dress-up, tooting horns, dancing, and singing. Intertwining horror and humor, “Home” introduces another strange character: a woman writing in a room in the house next door. Is everything a product of her imagination?

Katzman’s brilliant characterization, choice of words, and clever language make his latest novel hard to put down. “Once you start, it’s impossible to stop reading.” (Paul Auster). “Home” entertains and confounds its readers with dark humor and existential hijinks, giving them the strangest read of their lives. With its captivating plot, the book keeps readers guessing, making it an unforgettable and, at its conclusion, a transcendental literary experience. Franz Kafka and Samuel Beckett’s work being its main predecessors.

Interested readers may grab a copy of Mark Katzman’s “Home” through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and ReadersMagnet Bookstore. Learn more about the author and the book by visiting www.markkatzman.info. Visit the ReadersMagnet exhibit at the 2023 Frankfurt Book Fair to check out the book’s display.
