Thoughts on Sebald? Was he the greatest author of the last century?

How come he isn't popular here?

WG Sebald (1944-2001)
Brilliant German-British poetic and melancholic writer of novels, poetry, and essays/monographs that blur the lines of literary forms. Themes include the cyclical patterns of nature, history, art, literature, human life. Dense, deep, bleak and hyper-referential to other works while maintaining a quiet and poetic resolve. Notable works
> The Rings of Saturn
> Vertigo
> Austerlitz
> The Emigrants
FFO Borges, Walser, Mann.
