'An examination of the emotions of a man growing old ... this book has much to recommend it, and Auster is unsparingly honest about himself.' --Financial Times

'A positive tale about a journey to artistic and domestic fulfilment.' --Irish Times

Présentation de l'éditeur

Facing his sixty-fifth winter, internationally acclaimed novelist Paul Auster sits down to write a history of his body and its sensations both pleasurable and painful.

Thirty years after the publication of The Invention of Solitude, in which he wrote so movingly about fatherhood, Auster gives us a second unconventional memoir in which he writes about his mother's life and death. Winter Journal is a highly personal meditation on the body, time, and memory, by one of our most intellectually elegant writers.
