Notes from a small island A weblog by Jonathan Ali |
Friday, December 27, 2002 Won't Nicholas be pleased: WG Sebald's After Nature tops the Village Voice's favourite 25 books of the year list: 'The late maestro's initial act of literary imagination, only posthumously Englished, now stands as his accidental summa, a crepuscular blank-verse triptych that ranges across centuries and latitudes before arriving at his own coordinates.' One of my favourites, Ian McEwan's Atonement - 'an object lesson in what the novel—and only the novel—is still capable of' - comes in at number three. posted by Jonathan | 9:43 PM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
