Descrizione The Rings of Saturn
â?¿Sebald is the Joyce of the 21st Centuryâ?¿ The Times What begins as the record of W. G. Sebaldâ?¿s own journey on foot through coastal East Anglia, from Lowestoft to Bungay, becomes the conductor of evocations of people and cultures past and present. From Chateaubriand, Thomas Browne, Swinburne and Conrad, to fishing fleets, skulls and silkworms, the result is an intricately patterned and haunting book on the transience of all things human. â?¿A novel of ideas with a difference: it is nothing but ideasâ?¿ Formally dexterous, fearlessly written (why shouldn't an essay be a novel?), and unremittingly arcane; by the end I was in tearsâ?¿ Teju Cole, Guardian
