Man in the Dark: A NovelMan in the Dark: A Novel by Paul Auster
Buy new: $10.08 / Used from: $7.14
I love reading Paul Auter. Following his stories as they go in and out of fantasy and reality. In "The Man in the Dark", the man creates a story in which he is bewildered, loved, and final destroyed as he tries to reconcile two realities, and his own fate. His own life whose events have taken him to a place where he doesn't quite fit and can't really help the ones he loves.
Oracle Night: A NovelOracle Night: A Novel by Paul Auster
Buy new: $11.90 / Used from: $1.99
Paul Auster has the talent to wed ordinary, fantastic, impossible, and tragic events into the fabric of a story. Oracle Night has fantastic elements but also contains, for me, a good measure of ordinary and believable events and scenarios. Another example of his mastery of story telling and writing.
