From the supplier: Paul Auster's literary aesthetics are defined by having to find a form that would include the chaotic. He sets forth his philosophy in the essay 'The Art of Hunger' by quoting Samuel Beckett. Auster's fluency in French has given his language a lyrical quality while his form and language are in keeping with his subject of exploring the concept of individual freedom. In works such as the 'New York Trilogy,' Auster juxtaposes freedom and security while attempting to find a balance. Auster's works are an analyses of the complicated aspects of life by a probing mind.
