Mr Vertigo is brilliant - very different to his others. Also loved Leviathan and the Brooklyn Follies is good too (it's one of his most recent ones). Oracle Night was *really, really* disappointing, and I got half way through his latest one, Travels in the Scriptorium, before I had to put it down because it was wrecking my head a little. It's a strange book, not typical Auster at all - perhaps that's what threw me.
My favourite is Book of Illusions, it's fantastic
I bought The New York Trilogy in hardback which was a mistake as it's HUGE so I lent it to my granny (who introduced me to Auster - she's 83 and she rocks!!) but I bought a paperback recently so must get started on that.
Currently reading Mark Oliver Everett's autobiog, What the Grandchildren Should Know.
I'm still waiting for you to lend me Book of Illusions so I can be convinced that Oracle Night was a once off disappointment...completely pointless story I have to say.
