More Destruction

Written by:Stephen Mitchelmore.

The Complete Review provides an invaluable tool for those interested in WG Sebald’s On the Natural History of Destruction. A collection of the reviews would be longer than the book itself! The CR provides links to all those online.

Some of the reviews have made me determined to write something on this book, and the CR’s own review is one of them. I am inclined to disagree with it about that much short of 100%, but I have to re-read the book itself as I read it through in one day a few months ago. Usually I hate unputdownable books; not this one.

Actually, I seem to have written about it in blog form, at least: here and here, but most angrily, here.
