The Rings Of Saturn (Vintage Voyages) [Idioma Inglés] - Softcover

"A great, strange and moving work" (James Wood, Guardian)

"The finest book of long-distance mental travel that I've ever read" (Jonathan Raban, Times Literary Supplement)

"A desperate intensity of feeling is thrillingly counterpoised by the workings of a wonderfully learned and rigorous mind" (Sunday Times)

"Sebald is surely a major European author...he reaches the heights of epiphanic beauty only encountered normally in the likes of Proust" (Independent on Sunday)

"A highly original work...part memoir, part fiction, part meditative essay writing, and finally an essay for the dispossessed" (Sunday Telegraph)

VINTAGE VOYAGES: A world of journeys, from the tallest mountains to the depths of the mind

What begins as the record of a journey on foot through coastal East Anglia becomes the great, constellated story of people and cultures past and present: of Chateaubriand, Thomas Browne, Swinburne and Conrad, of fishing fleets, skulls and silkworms. A rich meditation on the past via a melancholy trip along the Suffolk coast, The Rings of Saturn is an intricately patterned and haunting book on the transience of all things human.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
