Paul Auster is an American writer that has been in my life for more than thirty years. I still remember the first of his books that I read. It was “The Music of Chance”, read in French, I must confess. I remember the feeling, the atmosphere, that I found again in his other novels… So it must have been properly translated. Paul Auster writes fiction but also nonfiction, poetry, and screenplays. I have decided for the moment to stop at the fiction. I will maybe extend my readings but I think that I would prefer to read all his fiction again before.
