When German author Sebald died in a car accident at the age of 57, the literary world mourned the loss of a writer whose oeuvre they were only just beginning to appreciate. Through published interviews with, and essays on, Sebald, Schwartz offers a profound portrait of the late author who has been praised for his unflinching explorations of modern history, dislocation and the role of memory. Includes essays from Charles Simic, Ruth Franklin, Michael Silverblatt and many others.
