The Rings of Saturn

2020

by W.G. Sebald

The Rings of Saturn — with its curious archive of photographs — records a walking tour along the east coast of England. A few of the things which cross the path and mind of its narrator (who both is and is not Sebald) are 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.

Travel in Time: A Life Story in Poems

Life experiences could be unique and inestimable. And exactly those values I aimed to capture in my poems.

Life could be an adventure, a dream, an illusion, a wonderful poem or endless love. Travel in Time is not only a collection of poems, it is for you as a reader an experience into a new world, into the world of poetic and romantic imagery.

Step out in time, there where you will touch with your spirit the Transylvanian green mountains, will listen to the song of a lonely shepherd, or you will hear the howling wolves in the moonlight.

Experience with me the innocent emotions of the first love, breathe the fresh air of a foreign country, meet the parents with hearts of diamonds, smile at the innocent sight of an angel, and perhaps, you will encounter a seldom beauty, the Queen of the Night.

The images, thoughts, and emotions you will experience reflect vivid moments from my life. Perhaps, along the journey, you will encounter familiar situations or places, and maybe you will smile by reminiscing your own adventures, your own memories, your own love story.
