Brooklyn Follies

Set against the backdrop of the contested US election of 2000, this book tells the story of Nathan and Tom, an uncle and nephew double-act. One in remission from lung cancer, divorced, and estranged from his only daughter, the other hiding away from his once-promising academic career, and, indeed, from life in general.

Cineva mi-a recomandat Brooklyn, asa ca a doua zi dimineata am calatorit acolo, de la Westchester, pentru a cerceta terenul. Infuzate cu caracter, mister si umor, aceste vieti se impletesc si se leaga impreuna, in timp ce Auster exploreaza cu brio terenul mai larg al Americii contemporane - un creuzet de vise sparte si de nebunie umana.
