Summary

Paul Auster: Sunset Park

For seven years Miles Heller has been on the run across America. A dark secret forced him to leave his family, his studies, New York and himself, and at the age of twenty-eight, in a country experiencing a recession and an overseas war, he lives from its collapse: in Florida, he vacates houses that the former tenants were forced to hand over to banks. The only thing that can save Miles Heller is love, but even that, when it happens, will be forbidden - just one more reason to run away, back to New York, to Sunset Park. "Sunset Park" is a novel of change, search and discovery, in which Paul Auster will inhabit an old abandoned house in Sunset Park with four characters and turn it into the core of a whole wounded world, woven of love, loss, regret and revenge.

Paul Auster was born in Newark, New Jersey in 1947. He graduated in English and comparative literature at Columbia University, then worked as a literary translator in Paris for four years. He gained worldwide popularity and universal critical acclaim with the "New York Trilogy", which consists of three short novels: "Glass City", "Ghosts" and "Locked Room". He wrote more than 15 novels, several books of autobiographical records and collections of poetry. He wrote several screenplays, among them for the film "Smoke" (Smoke, 1995) by Wayne Wang, which is considered a cult achievement of the 1990s. He directed some of them himself (Lulu na mosto, Inner Life of Martin Frost). In 2013, he published "Here and Now: Letters 2008–11", a selected correspondence with Nobel laureate J.M. Coetzee, and in 2017, the extensive "4321", his first novel in seven years. His books have been translated into 35 world languages. He lives in Brooklyn, New York, with his wife Siri Hustvedt, also a writer, and two children.
