Synopsis

This moving tour through the landscape of W.G. Sebald’s genre-bending novel, The Rings of Saturn, presents a multi-layered, many-voiced homage to his discursive, elegiac, and perfectly illusion-free style by poets, mapmakers, novelists, and acquaintances—admirers haunted and inspired by the voice of the German writer, who died in 2001.
