Rezension zu „Oracle Night “
"As Auster's many admirers know, his narrative voice is as hypnotic as that of the Ancient Mariner. Start one of his books and by page two you cannot choose but hear."--Michael Dirda, "The New York Review of Books ""Compulsively readable yet wonderfully complex and unsettling. The book is both a babushka doll of stories within stories and a literary Rubik's Cube, the solution of which, if there is one, is the very nature of reality."--"The Boston Globe ""Auster shines as a fabulist and tale-teller, putting a high-modernist gloss on noir."--"The New Yorker ""A joy to read."--"The Economist ""It's urban mysticism, a poetry of the hidden and the almost forgotten, with the supernatural power deriving equally from the city and the novelist's imagination. . . . A snow globe of a novel."--"New York" magazine ""Oracle Night" is a triumph for novelist Auster. It cements his growing reputation as one of America's most inventive and original writers."--"The Seattle Times"
