Sebald Interviewed - Circa "Austerlitz"

 I read W. G. Sebald's Austerlitz while in prison. I had been reading about the writer and the novel for some time, so I used the interlibrary loan to get the novel into Fort Dix. My notes are somewhere in one of the boxes stored in this room. If I am lucky it will appear here.

Until then, I offer you Sebald interview on Bookworm from YouTube. Readers and writers may take something of value from the interview, but I suspect it will benefit writers more. There is talk of influences and the writing of sentences. I gather Sebald derives much from Central European writers, of whom I think American writers are quite ignorant (excepting Kafka, of course).
