Paul Auster's The New York Trilogy

<p><b>''An instant classic that will be read for decades to come.'' <i>Guardian</i><br>''A stone cold masterpiece.'' Rachel Cooke, <i>Observer</i><br>''Spectacular.'' <i>PW (</i>starred review)<br>''Something like David Lynch meets Raymond Chandler in Manhattan . . . as unnerving as it is hypnotic.'' <i>Buzz Mag</i></b><br><br><i>It was a wrong number that started it . . .</i><br><br>From its iconic opening,<i> The New York Trilogy</i> famously blurred the lines between postmodern literature and noir fiction. Now, for the first time, all three books have been adapted for this landmark graphic novel, each by a different artist, and all overseen by Paul Auster before his death.<br><br>In David Mazzucchelli’s take on <i>City of Glass</i>, a writer of detective fiction is drawn into a real-life case far stranger than anything he has ever written; in Lorenzo Mattotti’s <i>Ghosts</i>, a private eye is hired to stalk a man only to discover a case so puzzling he descends into madness; and in series Director Paul Karasik’s <i>The Locked Room</i>, another author hopes to cure his writer’s block by solving the disappearance of his childhood friend. As each artist channels the cross-genre thrills of their source material, with its joyous mix of highbrow and lowbrow, the result is a groundbreaking new visual take on a modern classic.</p>
