| A deeply personal and moving memoir from the acclaimed author of The New York Trilogy and The Invention of Solitude "That is where the story begins, in your body, and everything will end in the body as well." Facing his sixty-third winter, internationally acclaimed novelist Paul Auster sits down to write a history of his body and its sensations—both pleasurable and painful. Thirty years after the publication of The Invention of Solitude, in which he wrote so movingly about fatherhood, Auster gives us a second unconventional memoir in which he writes about his mother's life and death. Winter Journal is a highly personal meditation on the body, time, and memory, by one of our most intellectually elegant writers. In this intimate and introspective work, Auster reflects on his childhood in Brooklyn, his coming of age in New York City, and the profound impact of family life. A poignant exploration of aging and the complex relationship between mother and son, Winter Journal showcases Auster's singular voice and extraordinary insight into the human condition. |
