The Brooklyn Follies

Konusu

'Auster at the top of his game. This superb novel about human folly turns out to be treendously wise.' New Statesman

The Brooklyn Follies 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 career, and life in general.

When Lucy, a little girl who refuses to speak, comes into their lives there is suddenly a bridge from their pasts that offers them the possibility of redemption.

'A marvellous book, dense and allusive but, at the same time, as inspring a work of art as any being made in these difficult times.'
John Burnside, Scotsman

'This book should win Auster new admirers.' Sunday Telegraph
