About this product

Product Information

The remarkable, acclaimed series of interconnected detective novels - from the author of 4 3 2 1: A Novel The New York Review of Books has called Paul Auster's work "one of the most distinctive niches in contemporary literature." Moving at the breathless pace of a thriller, this uniquely stylized triology of detective novels begins with City of Glass, in which Quinn, a mystery writer, receives an ominous phone call in the middle of the night. He's drawn into the streets of New York, onto an elusive case that's more puzzling and more deeply-layered than anything he might have written himself. In Ghosts , Blue, a mentee of Brown, is hired by White to spy on Black from a window on Orange Street. Once Blue starts stalking Black, he finds his subject on a similar mission, as well. In The Locked Room , Fanshawe has disappeared, leaving behind his wife and baby and nothing but a cache of novels, plays, and poems.

Reviews
Praise for The New York Trilogy:   "Eminently readable and mysterious. . .Auster has added some new dimensions to modern literature, and - more importantly even - to our perspectives on our planet." - Fanny Howe, The Boston Globe   "Exhilarating. . .a brilliant investigation of the storyteller's art guided by a writer who's never satisfied with just the facts." - The Philadelphia Inquirer   "It's as if Kafka had gotten hooked on the gumshoe game and penned his own ever-spiraling version." - The Washington Post   "Auster harnesses the inquiring spirit any reader brings to a mystery, redirecting it from the grubby search for a wrongdoer to the more rarified search for self." - The New York Times Book Review

Ordered May 4 arrived May 13. Book is in great condition at the best price I found. Shipping time was outstanding as it would have been here in three days but the weekend added a day. The real delay, aside from that, was the five days it took to process a very simple order. Most of your competitors do much better getting orders out in a timely manner. Have not had time to read any of it so 4*. I hope it lives up to its reputation.
