Sebald: \"An extraordinarily handsome edition of poems by the late great writer\" (Confrontation). Unrecounted combines thirty-three of what W. G. Sebald called his \"micropoems\"miniatures as unclassifiable as all of his workswith thirty-three exquisitely exact lithographs by one of his oldest friends  the acclaimed artist Jan Peter Tripp.  The lithographs portray  with stunning precision  pairs of eyesthe eyes of Beckett  Borges  Proust Jasper Johns  Francis Bacon  Tripp  Sebald  Sebalds dog Maurice. Brief as haiku  the poems are epiphanic and anti-narrative. What the author calls \"time lost  the pain of remembering  and the figure of death\" here find a small home. The art and poems do not explain one another  but rather engage in a kind of dialogue. \"The longer I look at the pictures of Jan Peter Tripp \" Sebald comments in his essay  \"the better I understand that behind the illusions of the surface  a dread-inspiring depth is concealed. It is the metaphysical lining of reality  so to speak.\" 33 black-and-white illustrations\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45655708303413,"sku":"ByrdShop_0811215962","price":248.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780811215961.jpg?v=1781938914","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/unrecounted-9780811215961","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
