...THE TELEPHONE RINGING THREE TIMES IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT...
Review: This was a surreal introduction to *Auster's novel
The New York Trilogy which was originally published in 1985, and in 1994 was adapted into this graphic novel. I automatically thought of Franz Kafka, and Jorge Luis Borges especially exploring his multiple- identity characters. This is definitely a good one for the lover of detective stories, post-modernist seeker and/or comic lover. One seems to forget you are engaged in a graphic novel due to the complexity of the storyline. A bizarre ending to part one of a unique trilogy. A must read for existentialist fans alike.*He is also a translator, poet, editor, contributor, script writer and more recently film director.
