About this title

Synopsis:

This book is a completely original collaboration between two artists, the writer W.G.Sebald and the painter Tess Jaray. Tess Jaray first met W.G.Sebald in December 1999, having been profoundly moved by his two books, "The Emigrants" and "The Rings of Saturn". The idea of their working together seemed to follow naturally. "For Years Now" contains 23 short stories by W.G.Sebald - the first that he has written in English - each of them paired with a related image by Tess Jaray.
