	Chris Pace's thesis
		Auster's detectives are all very straightforward, both in their manners and their speech; when we are first introduced to them, they all believe that "each word [tallies] the thing described" and that "words are transparent...great windows that stand between [them] and the world" (The New York Trilogy 174).
		Auster chooses to use the detective genre in the trilogy at least in part because the rigid conventions of this form underline the set "roles" that the reader, the author, and the characters are supposed to play in the creation of the book.
		Auster, I believe, points out this hazard by making his characters aware that, like some readers, they are trapped in the locked room of a conventionally structured novel whose structures lead only back to the text itself, and not to the world that exists outside of the novel.

	Paul Auster (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Paul Auster was conceived while his parents were on their honeymoon in Niagara Falls, and was born in Newark, New Jersey on 3 February 1947.
		Auster, meanwhile, began to feel, as he discloses in his memoir Hand to Mouth, like "an internal émigré, an exile in my own house." Mad magazine comforted Auster with the knowledge that, in questioning the older generation's values, he was not alone.
		Auster's undergraduate years at Columbia coincided with a period of social unrest, though Auster was only peripherally involved in the politics of the time.

	Reflections On the Work of Paul Auster (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Auster is also reminiscent of WG Sebald and Milan Kundera, for like them, he is unafraid of tackling the big themes: fate, the nature of being, the search for happiness.
		Auster almost always writes in the first person and it is his ability to inhabit his characters body and soul, which gives his work its vivacity.
		In his work Auster is concerned with the subjectivity of existence, with the multiplicity of ways of perception and the fear of a lack of fixed identity.

	Supposing a Space: The Detecting Subject in Paul Auster's City of Glass (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Auster's version of the "Wakefield" story suggests, then, that in the postmodern space of the city, the subject risks more than being temporarily alienated from his or her home, a place which remains, ideological speaking, permanent even in the modernist urban environment.
		Auster evokes this spatial separation when, in a highly metafictional moment, he takes Quinn to the domicile of none other than Paul Auster, a writer no less -- we never do see the detective -- who not coincidentally lives with a wife and son, much as Quinn once did, in a comfortable apartment.
		Auster's use of the word "bourgeois" places the eleventh-floor apartment in direct contrast with the space of the street where Quinn will eventually lose both his home and his belief in the existence of such a place.

	Paul Auster (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Auster is called "postmodern" by some critics, but they all seem to agree that his main themes are loss of self, the role of chance, and the unconventional employment of genre conventions.
		Auster is not famous enough to be in the standard encyclopedia, but he is likely to be in specialized encyclopedias about figures in contemporary literature.
		Auster's book asks the reader how many standards of narrative, theoretical, and formative approaches can be disregarded or mutilated in a narrative before it ceases to be a novel.

	Processes of Embodiment and Spatialization in the Writings of Paul Auster (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		In his own poetry, Auster speaks of this first injunction on the poet primarily in conjunction with the image of "the eye" and of the world as it "enters" the eye of the poet [11].
		Thus, Auster's poetry refers to itself as "the word that is born / in the eye" (GW 66), and as "the brief miracle / of the open eye" (GW 69).
		Auster's own poetry frequently returns to this notion of an escape from "the burden / of eyes" (GW 17) into a nowhere of invisibility, "till nowhere, blooming / in the prison of your mouth, becomes / wherever you are" (GW 28).

	Auster’s Biography
		Auster was born in Newark, New Jersey on 3 February 1947.
		Auster had by now completed Portrait of an Invisible Man—an extended meditation on his father's death that would form the first half of The Invention of Solitude—and during 1980 he would begin work on Invention's second half, The Book of Memory.
		What Auster would later call the "uni-vocal expression" of his poems was beginning to give way to the self-contradictory expression of prose, and the poet was on the verge of transforming himself into a novelist.

	Paul Auster : Cruel Universe : An overview by spike magazine
		Auster's novels explore the mysteries of the mind in such a way that their process can be shared from the inside by the reader.
		Auster provides an entire "new" universe for his illuminated but incarcerated characters, describing cruel relationships and situations under the gaze of an audience – readers, who themselves are unable to reach a transcendence, trapped in the ruins of their personal values.
		Paul Auster's work is primarily idiosyncratic and thought-provoking and ultimately centres upon the nature of identity, the resonances and epiphanies of memory, the strange and indefinable forces that shape our lives.

	Paul Auster's, 'The Book of Illusions' reviewed on the official website of Laura Hird
		Auster’s narrator David Zimmer is a broken (and still breaking) man. Auster reveals the peculiarly cruel process of grief - a kind of death without dying.
		Auster has said, “writing is no longer an act of free will for me, it’s a matter of survival.” Zimmer likewise turns to writing for survival.
		Auster shows us a man who’s hit bottom, but in the breaking discovers he will survive: “the worst of what happened to me was suddenly over.” In ‘Book Of illusions’ when we hear, or imagine we’re hearing, Auster speak, we sit up and listen.

		Auster uses footnotes to provide interesting backstory and develops Sidney's insecurities regarding love and fidelity, but when Sidney hits a patchy spot and writes Bowen into a corner, he (and Auster) shrugs and drops the story.
		While Auster used perhaps just a touch too much foreshadowing in his book, it is not the plot line so much that Auster seems to wish to convey, as the dilemmas of the characters, and how those dilemmas feel to the characters.
		Auster makes you feel that all the crazy things that happen to his characters are just a part of life, which in his books means strange coincidences and bizarre events.

		The marriage apparently ended in such a way as to devastate Auster nearly beyond repair, and to this date many of the main characters in his novels are adult males living in catatonic states after the deaths of their wives and children).
		There are more facts available, but when discussing Auster they all seem to hang meaninglessly in the breeze, because to apprehend Auster's writing is to come to a point where nothing can be considered true and nothing can be understood.
		Auster has written many books, including "Moon Palace" (identity dislocation in an olden-day New York setting, involving a chinese restaurant and a cubist painter), "Leviathan" (identity dislocation with a left-wing/anarchist political theme), "The Music of Chance" (identity dislocation at a poker tournament) and "Timbuktu" (something about a dog).
