A Life in Words by Paul Auster
Paul Auster's A Life in Words--a wide-ranging dialogue between Auster and the Danish professor I. B. Siegumfeldt--is a remarkably candid and sharply focused investigation into one writer's art, craft, and life. It includes many revelations that have never been shared before. This is a book that's full of surprises, composed of spoken words that sometimes jump off the page like good drama. The conversations between Auster and Siegumfeldt went on for three years, starting in 2011 and continuing after there was a complete draft in revisions. All twenty-one of Auster's narrative works are covered, as well as all the themes and obsessions that drive the work, and the man.
Auster, Paul: - Paul Auster est un ecrivain americain, ne dans le New Jersey en 1947. Apres des etudes de lettres a la Columbia University, il se lance dans l'ecriture de poemes et de scenarios. Entre 1971 et 1975, il s'installe a Paris ou il traduit des auteurs comme Mallarme et Sartre, et publie son premier recueil de poemes: Unearth. Sa carriere litteraire s'envole en 1985 avec la parution de sa Trilogie new-yorkaise qui sera suivie de nombreux autres succes comme Moon Palace ou encore Leviathan qui obtient le prix Medicis etranger en 1993. Egalement passionne par le cinema, il participe au tournage de Smoke et realise Lulu on the Bridge. Invisible, son dernier roman, a recu un accueil critique et public unanime.
