PAUL AUSTER signs
Man In The Dark
(Henry Holt, $23.00)
|
"The 'parallel worlds' visited and occupied by an aging intellectual's troubled mind and heart assume intriguing metafictional form in Auster's challenging novel. The initially unidentified narrator, an insomniac, lures us into the book with the story he's imagining: that of a noncombatant (Owen Brick) who finds himself pressed into service in a civil war that has violently divided an alternative present-day America... Auster's lucid prose and masterly command of his tricky narrative's twists, turns and mirrorings keep us riveted to the pages... Probably Auster's best novel, and a plaintive summa of all the books that -- we now see -- have gone into its making," said Kirkus. ALSO: -- Oracle Night (Picador, 2004, $9.00, first trade paperback ed.) SIGNED, as new. -- The Inner Life of Martin Frost (Picador, 2007, $39.00, first trade paperback ed.) SIGNED, as new. The script for the film of the title. -- Travels in the Scriptorium (Picador, 2008, $12.00, first trade paperback ed.) SIGNED, as new. |
