Book summarySebald's first (and autobiographical) novel is about a disturbed man who is obsessed with the literary giants of the past. A New York Times Notable Book for 2000. Media reviews"[E]ven more than the two succeeding books, this is a self-portrait of the mind: a restless, chronically dissatisfied mind; a harrowed mind; a mind prone to hallucinations....What anchors the unstable consciousness of the narrator is the spaciousness and acuity of the details." |
