Austerlitz Sebald Review #1 Austerlitz is unusual in a number of ways. The actual layout of the text is markedly different from that of most novels: there are only 25 widely spaced lines to the page. There are no paragraphs anywhere in the book‚ and no chapters in the usual sense; there are only a handful of inverted commas for speech.
