Brooklyn’s bard: Paul Auster’s tricksy fiction captivated a generation https://t.co/zOyHMtiBqH

[Faber Books @FaberBooks]

‘Paul Auster was an anomaly: a thoroughly warm, witty, sympathetic, laughter-loving individual, with insatiable intellectual curiosity and a gift for friendship; at the same time, he was a monumental literary presence.’

Paul Auster remembered by Ian McEwan, Joyce Carol Oates and more.

Read @niewview’s Feedback & Complaints, which questions preconceived notions around the translator’s role and work from a personal perspective. This spiky and satirical essay is published as a companion piece to Jen’s lead feature in our latest issue.
