Author(s): W.G. Sebald (tr Anthea Bell)

Fiction

At the heart of this volume are four lyrical and meditative prose fragments, from a great, still incomplete work he was planning, centring on the island of Corsica. The title piece was discovered after his death. Literary essays on those literary greats Sebald felt an affinity with complete the volume: Nabokov, Kafka, Grass and Chatwin. For the true completist.
