Instagram, souls, porn, love, jealousy, art. Nature and fear. Money. Above all though, this book is about the gradual shift from an ever-brooding self into a body that feels.
Insufferable’s thirty-something protagonist is stricken with disquietude and loneliness until she begins to follow the soft guidance of an old wise woman from the Bavarian countryside and untangles herself from an ill-fated romance. This is an account of her story, documented without reserve.

“Moving between southern Germany, Instagram, and the cocoons of nearly identical capitals like Mexico City and New York, Insufferable captures the uncertain drift of nomadic creative life. Haunted by a long-deceased brother and the slow death of a romantic relationship, Konrad’s narrator is gradually forced to stop escaping from one fantasy to the next and face the reality of the present.”
