Saturn's Moons: A W.G.Sebald Handbook

This book brings together in one volume for the first time important new critical and visual source materials on Sebald’s life and works much of it taken from original sources from the Sebald Nachlaá - the most important part of which is now held in Marbach, Germany, where it will be the subject of a major exhibition in 2008-9. It contains accounts from Sebald’s colleagues and students, definitive primary and secondary bibliographies, details of audiovisual material and interviews, and a catalogue of Sebald’s library. Saturn’s Moons provides unique materials for future Sebald studies in English and German alike, complementing recent critical works on subjects such as history, memory, modernity, reader response and the visual.
