Sister Europe / Nell Zink.
Summary:
"Naema, an elderly princess dedicated to her pet causes, is in a bind: struck by a malady that maroons her in Montreux, she's unable to host an exclusive gala dinner in Berlin to honor the author Masud al-Huzeil for his lifetime achievement in Arabic literature. Not only is she unable to attend, RSVPs have been slow to materialize, and she's reduced to begging the ancient award-winner to find some attendees at the last minute. Masud invites his old friend and native-Berliner, Demian, who in turn, invites his two best friends: the troubled innocent Livia, and an American publisher, Toto, who will do anything for a free meal. But Toto doesn't come alone. In tow are his much younger internet date-she's stood him up often enough to be nicknamed "the Flake"-and Demian's 15-year-old daughter, Nicole. Not to mention the cop who's been trailing Nicole since she left the red-light district. Presiding over the affair is Naema's infinitely rich, endlessly disaffected grandson, Prince Radi, whose catastrophic pass at Nicole culminates in an epic midnight food run that changes all their lives"-- Provided by publisher.
