"Winter Journal" by Paul Auster ***


  • Audiobook
  • US author
  • Originally published 2011
  • Review:  Auster's second memoir was interesting, if a bit weird.  Who writes a memoir in second person?  I am sure, knowing the profound nature of his novels, that Auster has a reason, but it was distracting to me.  Frankly, the last third was the most interesting.  Auster compares writing to dance, and both of them to expressions of the heart rhythm.  Love that part of it!  Auster is one of my favorite authors, but this fell short of my expectations.
