RIP Paul Auster 08:27 - May 1 with 336 views

One of the best writers of our time. Met him in Melbourne with his wife Siri in 2007. He seemed a very nice person. There has been so much drama in his family in recent years. I finished reading his last novel Baumgartner recently which hinted that this was the end.

That's sad news. I've read most of his books and was a big fan.

Good to know we have some post-modernist / absurdist readers on the forum. I would recommend audible for re-run/ re-reads of his works as he is the narrator. Powerful words and voice.
