1	Austerlitz more books like this by W. G. Sebald This is the real life story of Jacques Austerlitz who, at the age of five, came to London on one of the so-called kindertransports in the summer of 1939. Austerlitz is placed with foster parents in Wales, a childless couple who, for reasons of their own, erase in the boy all knowledge of his identity. Though he does, later on as an adult, have ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.99! \| signed copies \| first editions \| SVS
2	The rings of Saturn more books like this by W. G. Sebald The Rings of Saturn, W.G. Sebald's most recent novel, has been an international sensation. Its ten strange and beautiful chapters, with their curious archive of photographs, consider dreams and reality.

3	On the Natural History of Destruction more books like this by Winfried Georg Sebald W. G. Sebald writes eloquently about Germany in the aftermath of World War II, particularly the strange reluctance of Germans to talk about the extensive bombing of their country by the Allies.

Sebald has been ... see all copies from $3.15! new only from $8.64! \| first editions \| SVS
4	The emigrants more books like this by W. G. Sebald The four long narratives in this book appear at first to be plain accounts of the lives of Jewish emigrants in Norfolk, Austria, America and Manchester. But, gradually, the book emerges into one evocation of the experience of exile, the loss of homeland. see all copies from $2.33! new only from $9.21! \| first editions \| SVS
5	Vertigo more books like this by Winfried Georg Sebald Part fiction, part travelogue, the narrator of this compelling masterpiece pursues his solitary, eccentric course from England to Italy and beyond, succumbing to the vertiginous unreliability of memory itself. What could possibly connect Stendhal's unrequited love, the artistry of Pisanello, a series of murders by a clandestine organisation, a ... see all copies from $4.00! new only from $6.00! \| signed copies \| first editions \| SVS
6	After Nature more books like this by Winfried Georg Sebald W. G. Sebald's posthumously published book is actually his first, published in German in 1988. Difficult to categorize, it most resembles a prose poem, and is composed of three sections. The first tells the story of Mathias Grünewald, a 16th-century painter. This is followed by the tale of a journey to the Arctic by the 18th-century explorer Georg ... see all copies from $2.37! new only from $6.61! \| first editions \| SVS
7	Campo Santo more books like this by Winfried Georg Sebald The last writings of W. G. Sebald (1944-2001) are collected here. While it is infinitely sad to think that there will be no more, this volume is a treasure of Sebaldian meditations on his usual eclectic variety of subjects, including Nabokov, Kafka, Günter Grass, depictions in literature of Kaspar Hauser the wild child, and Sebald's own childhood ... see all copies from $5.20! new only from $7.99! \| first editions \| SVS
8	Unrecounted more books like this by Winfried Georg Sebald, Jan Peter Tripp (Illustrator), Michael Hamburger (Translator) This posthumous book of what he called "micro-poems" by W.G. Sebald (1944-2001) is accompanied by 33 lithographs, or "eye-landscapes" (including portraits--but only the eyes--of Sebald, his daughter, and their dog), by Jan Peter Tripp, a childhood friend of Sebald. The volume also includes an introduction by Michael Hamburger, the translator; ... see all copies from $2.97! new only from $5.22! \| first editions \| SVS
