I think I have to read ALL the Auster!!! *swoon* I've had favorite writers before but not like this. His narratives just sorta come roiling in til you're soaking in them. So glad I purchased this instead of the Houllebecquzxdw the other day. #Fanboy

Really great read so far. I'm enjoying much more than Sunset Park.

Scottie Roche is on page 22 of 87 of Illness as Metaphor
Norman Mailer claimed if he hadn't stabbed his wife the pent up anger would have given him cancer and he would have died. It is very interesting to be reading Sontag's pre-AIDS era study on the mythos of Turburclosis and Cancer. Especially on the eve of World Aids Day. I grew up in a world shaped by HIV. Interesting to see the power of stigma and disease metaphor befor AIDS took center stage.
