Paul Auster - Invisible

"The best novel Auster ever wrote." - New York Times

1967, New York City. Adam Walker is twenty years old, wants to be a poet, and attends Columbia University. He meets a mysterious Frenchman, Rudolf Born, and Born's seductive, taciturn girlfriend. Walker soon finds himself in a perverse triangle. When something violent happens unexpectedly, Walker's life changes.

The Invisible is the fifteenth novel of the living classic of American literature, which consists of four interconnected units. We move in time between 1967 and 2007, the story leading to the shadowy borderland of authorship, self-identity and memory unfolds from the words of three narrators. A remote island in the Caribbean, Paris, Brooklyn - the spaces of the Invisible are filled with youth, rage and overheated sexuality. The reader can be convinced many times that Paul Auster is one of the most spectacular talents of our time.
