W. G. Sebald
W. G. Sebald was a German author born in 1944, renowned for his distinctive narrative style that blends fiction and nonfiction, often exploring themes of memory, trauma, and the impact of history on personal and collective identity. His works, such as 'The Rings of Saturn' and 'Austerlitz,' are characterized by a reflective, melancholic tone and an evocative use of photographs, inviting readers to contemplate the ghosts of Europe’s tumultuous past. Tragically, Sebald died in a car accident in 2001, shortly before he was widely expected to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature.
