It's a very broad mix, given their diversity though the New Narrative figures you might expect appear fairly regularly. Given his hybrid forms, and infolding of the personal and the historic, I thought WGS might appear more often, but no; perhaps he lacks the more obvious transgressive appeal?

All the autofiction folks are DEEPLY influenced by Sebald, who I have to admit, I try to read again every few years and he remains, somehow, not for me.

I read his name in an email from a former MA student just this morning! He’s taught by my colleague Deepa Anappara in her module on Narrative and Storytelling.

Read about half of this tonight, and as a piece of writing it appears almost miraculous. Does he much interest readers now? I can't recall when last a student of ours mentioned his name.
