<p><b>The remarkable, acclaimed series of interconnected detective novels - from the author of </b><i><b><i>4 3 2 1: A Novel</i></b></i></p><p>The <i>New York Review of Books</i> has called Paul Auster's work "one of the most distinctive niches in contemporary literature." Moving at the breathless pace of a thriller, this uniquely stylized triology of detective novels begins with <i>City of Glass, </i>in which Quinn, a mystery writer, receives an ominous phone call in the middle of the night. He's drawn into the streets of New York, onto an elusive case that's more puzzling and more deeply-layered than anything he might have written himself. In <i>Ghosts</i>, Blue, a mentee of Brown, is hired by White to spy on Black from a window on Orange Street. Once Blue starts stalking Black, he finds his subject on a similar mission, as well. In <i>The Locked Room</i>, Fanshawe has disappeared, leaving behind his wife and baby and nothing but a cache of novels, plays, and poems.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Paul Auster<br><b>Publisher:</b> Penguin Books<br><b>Published:</b> 04/01/1990<br><b>Pages:</b> 384<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.57lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 7.77h x 5.05w x 0.75d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780140131550<br><b>Age Range:</b> 18-UP<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>New York Review of Books</i> 12/04/2008 pg. 36<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br>Paul Auster is the bestselling author of <i>The New York Trilogy</i> and many other critically acclaimed novels.
