The release date for the English version of 'The Rings of Saturn' by
W.G. Sebald is Apr 1999. If you enjoy this novel, it is available for buy as a paperback from Barnes & Noble or Indigo, as an ebook on the Amazon Kindle store, or as an audiobook on Audible.
The Rings of Saturn chronicles a walking excursion over England's east coast and has an intriguing picture library. Lonely eccentrics, Sir Thomas Browne's skull, a matchstick model of the Temple of Jerusalem, recession-hit seaside towns, wooded hills, Joseph Conrad, Rembrandt's "Anatomy Lesson," the natural history of the herring, the massive bombings of WWII, the dowager empress Tzu Hsi, and the silk industry in Norwich are just a few of the things that cross the path and mind of the narrator (who is both Sebald and not).
