Takeaways
Description

The Emigrants are a novel that blends the author's memories of his family's history with fiction, creating a series of stories about four Jewish émigrés in the twentieth century. Although there are four different narrators, their stories merge into a single story about loss and exile. The novel also has many black-and-white photographs that serve as a haunting complement to Sebalds writing.
