8. Paul Auster: The Art of Fiction CLXXVIII.

Author

*AUTHORS, *FICTION
Abstract

Presents an interview with author Paul Auster in San Francisco, California. In 1985 "The New York Trilogy" was finally published by Sun and Moon Press in San Francisco, this came after many denials for publishment from other companies. Even tough he regularly wrote reviews, translations and his prose poem "White Spaces" published in 1988, the Trilogy was the beginning of his literary career. The year after "The New York Trilogy" was released he released the other two novels "Ghost" and "The Locked Room." In the late sixties he attended Columbia University then moved to Paris to start The Living House, a publishing house, with his first wife. This company is where his first novel was published and since then he has published one every year. Austers work is viewed as remarkable because he has so many types of literary writings; novels, essays, translations, poems, plays, songs and collaboration various artists. When asked of his writing technique he says always notebook with a fountain pen, sometimes pencil, it seems to be more primitive and he remains more creative. He does say though that the paper also has to be in notebooks, he has a fetish of writing on quadrille line paper, the little squares.
