Kitap Tanıtımı The discovery of a mysterious notebook turns a man s life upside-down in this compulsively readable novel by 'one of the great writers of our time' (San Francisco Chronicle). Several months into his recovery from a near-fatal illness, novelist Sidney Orr enters a stationery shop in Brooklyn and buys a blue notebook. it is September 18,1982, and for the next nine days Orr will live under the spell of this blank book, trapped inside a world of eerie premonitions and bewildering events that threaten to destroy his marriage and undermine his faith in reality. Paul Auster's mesmerizing eleventh novel reads like an old-fashioned ghost story. But there are no ghosts in this book - only flesh-and-blood human beings, wandering through the haunted realms of everyday life. Oracle Night is a narrative tour de force that confırms Auster's reputation as one of the boldest, most original writers at work in America today. 'This neat, sweet volume is a joy to read.' Economist Auster's writing is stunning and the book is absorbing and hypnotic' Spectator
