By Paul Auster
Three interlocking short novels — City of Glass, Ghosts and The Locked Room — that use the machinery of detective fiction and then decline to do what detective fiction does.
In each one a man is hired to follow someone, and the surveillance slowly dismantles the watcher instead: his name, his address, his sense of being a separate person. As readable as Chandler and as unsettling as Kafka.
First published 1987
