Paul Auster

In this astonishingly acrobatic collection Paul Auster traces the compulsion to make literature. In this selection of interviews as well as in 'The Red Notebook', Auster reflects on his own work, on the need to break down the boundary between living and writing and on the use of certain genre conventions to penetrate matters of memory and identity. This collection also includes Auster's essay 'A Prayer for Salman Rushdie.' The Red Notebook undetermines and illuminated our accepted notions about literature, and leads us to a better understanding of the dangerous stakes of writing. 'The red Notebook bears testimony to Auster's sense of the metaphysical elegance of life and art.' - Literary Review. Paul Auster was born in New Jersey in 1947. Since 1974 he has published poems, essays, novels, translations, screenplays and a memoir, Hand to Mouth.
