100% Paul Auster fanboy in 1997. When I moved to New York to attend Columbia (partly because of him) I wrote asking to intern with him. Here’s his kind reply. In 2001, I contacted him again and he considered blurbing my novel—he didn’t but was happy he thought about it.
My favourite Paul Auster novel. A German woman named Dorit introduced me to his work in a Prague hostel in 1995. He was one of those writers who bends your mind at an impressionable age. His books were so eerie, erudite, and full of love and art.
For Canadian Independent Bookstore Day, @ShashiSBhat’s new book is available as an exclusive early-release at indie bookstores only! 📚❤️ indiebookstores.ca/cibd #CIBD2024
“I was the kid who wore a housekey around my neck on a thread and let myself into most rooms at home, where the primary interaction I witnessed were those on our… TV. As a kid, television kept me company after school and gave me a reason to get up on Saturday mornings.” Me too!

I lived in Champlain Heights/Killarney with my parents and brother for about a year. I was worried I wouldn't have much to say about it. I was wrong.
