‘Equally immersive and devastating is W.G. Sebald’s masterpiece\u00a0The Rings of Saturn. <\/em>The narrator walks a metaphysical path along the coastal edge of Suffolk, past its abandoned great houses and fishing fleets, placing his melancholic gaze on the underbelly of the Empire. A journey that weaves into the lives of poets and philosophers, Sir Thomas Browne’s skull, the Empress Tzu, the silkworm industry of Norwich, the bombing of German cities in WWII, the invisible cruelty of hierarchies that keep us caught in the repeating wheel of history.’ ~ Charlotte du Cann,<\/em> contributor to May 2022’s Rebel Library<\/em>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What begins as the record of W.G. Sebald’s own journey on foot through coastal East Anglia, from Lowestoft to Bungay, becomes the conductor of evocations of people and cultures past and present.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

From Chateaubriand, Thomas Browne, Swinburne and Conrad, to fishing fleets, skulls and silkworms, the result is an intricately patterned and haunting book on the transience of all things human.<\/p>\n
