When you're a man as good-looking, beloved by the French, and utterly meta as Paul Auster, things happen to you. Exciting things. Surprising things. Coicidental and virtually impossible things. And if things aren't happening to you, then by golly, they are happening to someone you know. And so what are you to do, Paul Auster, but to write a book detailing the minute ways in which life (specifically yours) truly means something. Because, Dear Reader, everything is connected. Auster believes in a type of fate, it seems, a universal undercurrent that prompts and pushes almost every moment of our lives. Luckily, this predilection never seems too fanatical, never truly takes on the spectre of religious predestination that seems to be playing on the sidelines. Because when you get down to it, the fact that Paul Auster thinks that one day he lost a dime in Brooklyn and then later that day found "the very same dime" in front of Yankee Stadium is pretty endearing. The problem is that after awhile, these 'amazing' events seem remarkably mundane. I mean, what's so remarkable about coincidences that happen all the time? This is only exaggerated by his writing style--quick, to the point, and bereft of detail. Everything happens for a reason, I guess, but perhaps the reason isn't as moving and complex as one might hope. And anyway, Paul, it probably wasn't the same dime.

Home life with upset mother who felt trapped in her life and sister with definite psychological problems. After mother dies, she goes to New Orleans, meets her mother's previous beau and a man to love.
I guess I don't get the big deal behind this. I really liked some of the poems. Drunken Boat.
Every New Yorker has this on their shelf, next to "The Power Broker" (not literally next to, or else the shelf would tear itself from the wall). Someday I'll read it.
3.5 stars Cute characters, but the story is a little trite.
This book is really well paced -- I couldn't wait to see what happened next the entire way through! The increasing focus on romance *almost* ruined it for me because it started to take over the inherent survival theme near the end, but it kept my interest. I can't wait to get my hands on the next one!

wow a great lesson in the use of the comma for primary students!
When I heard that this book is being made into a movie, I of course had to read it first. It was a fun story and a lot different from her other books I have read. At first I thought it was going to be a predictable, cheesy romance but I had no idea what was coming. I liked it.
