About the book

This is a personal collection of essays, prefaces and occasional pieces written for magazines and newspapers. Ranging in subject from Walter Raleigh to Kafka; Hawthorne to high-wire artist Philippe Petit; conceptual artist Sophie Calle to his own typewriter; and The World Trade Center catastrophe to his beloved New York City itself, Auster displays his customary flair, wit and insight.
