"Austerlitz" is the last novel of Winfried Georg Sebald, which was published in 2001, shortly before the death of the writer. In 1967, in the central railway station of Antwerp, the narrator meets Jacques Austerlitz, an art historian, whose life story we gradually learn. Four-year-old Austerlitz was shunned by the Nazis and taken, along with other Jewish children, from Czechoslovakia to Great Britain, where he was brought up by a Welsh priest. Years later, Austerlitz is searching all over Europe for his lost past. Sebald's influence on modern literature is undefined, and "Austerlitz" is considered one of the main books of the first twenty years of the 21st century. It is difficult to define the genre of the writer's texts, but, traditionally, they are referred to as novels. In total, Sebald wrote four novels. All four of them are on the verge of documentary and artistic prose, which is emphasized by the black-and-white photographs attached to the books. "Austerlitz" is the second book of the German writer, which was translated into Georgian. "Diogenes" has also published Sebald's "Emigrants".
