Sebald's Bachelors

This study shows that the potential for subversion personified by the German writer W. G. Sebald's solitary males is essential for understanding his work, while also demonstrating the contribution that Sebald made to the German tradition of queer writing.
Why do queer bachelors and homosexual desire haunt the works of the German writer W. G. Sebald (1944-2001)? In a series of readings of Sebald s major texts, from After Nature to Austerlitz, Helen Finch s pioneering study shows that alternative masculinities subvert catastrophe in Sebald s works."
