Inhaltsangabe
'One of the most exciting, and most mysteriously sublime, of contemporary European writers' Guardian In this major work, the finest of his career to date, W.G. Sebald traces the moving and epic story of Jacques Austerlitz. Sent to Wales on the last Kindertransport from Europe on the eve of the Second World War, five-year-old Austerlitz is adopted by Welsh Calvinists, who decide to remove any trace of his true origins. Throughout his life Austerlitz is haunted by feelings of otherness, but it is not until retirement that he embarks on a journey to make sense of his curious early memories, taking the reader back into the heart of pre-war Europe...
