Oracle Night by Paul Auster The discovery of a mysterious
notebook turns a mans life upside-down in this
compulsively readable novel by one of the great writers of
our time ( San Francisco Chronicle ). Several months into
his recovery from a near-fatal illness novelist Sidney Orr
enters a stationery shop in Brooklyn and buys a blue
notebook. It is September 18 1982 and for the next nine
days Orr will live under the spell of this blank book
trapped inside a world of eerie premonitions and
bewildering events that threaten to destroy his marriage
and undermine his faith in reality. Paul Austers
mesmerizing eleventh novel reads like an old-fashioned
ghost story. But there are no ghosts in this book – only
flesh-and-blood human beings wandering through the haunted
realms of everyday life. Oracle Night is a narrative tour
de force that confirms Austers reputation as one of the
boldest most original writers at work in America today.
