Inhaltsangabe
Vertigo, W. G. Sebald's first novel, never before translated into English, is perhaps his most amazing and certainly his most alarming. Sebald—the acknowledged master of memory's uncanniness—takes the painful pleasures of unknowability to new intensities in Vertigo. Here in their first flowering are the signature elements of Sebald's hugely acclaimed novels The Emigrants and The Rings of Saturn. An unnamed narrator, beset by nervous ailments, is again our guide on a hair-raising journey through the past and across Europe, amid restless literary ghosts—Kafka, Stendhal, Casanova. In four dizzying sections, the narrator plunges the reader into vertigo, into that "swimming of the head," as Webster's defines it: in other words, into that state so unsettling, so fascinating, and so "stunning and strange," as The New York Times Book Review declared about The Emigrants, that it is "like a dream you want to last forever."

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 8vo. Published by New Directions, New York. 2000 263 pages. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Presents W. G. Sebald's "Vertigo" in Michael Hulse's acclaimed English translation. A "spell-binding blend of personal narrative, investigation, fiction, history, and travel writing". The most celebrated of the four narratives is devoted to Kafka (Stendhal and Casanova also appear). The great German expatriate writer conflated, transformed, and transcended various literary genres to create his one-of-a-kind novels. In addition, Sebald's innovative and brilliant insertion of ambiguous photographs throughout the text, his application of Roland Barthes' "photograph-as-punctuation" mandate, is first deployed here. "So stunning and strange, like a dream you want to last forever" (The New York Times). EB; 8.3 X 5.7 X 1.0 inches; 224 pages. Artikel-Nr. 64599
