Query: Terrifically Entertaining and Addictive

I first stumbled upon the NYT when I was in college, over 20 years ago. I found it in a secondhand bookshop and picked it up, never having heard of Paul Auster. The chance encounter is something right out of the novels themselves. I read the whole thing in a weekend and I've thought about it, off and on, ever since. Don't look for some revelatory solution: just read it to see what questions it asks.
