Brought together by the mysterious Miles Heller during the dark months of the 2008 economic collapse, Sunset Park follows the hopes and fears of a cast of unforgettable characters:
An enigmatic young man employed as a trash-out worker in southern Florida who obsessively photographs abandoned objects.
A group of young squatters in an apartment in Sunset Park, Brooklyn.
A celebrated actress preparing to return to Broadway.
An independent publisher desperately trying to save his business and his marriage.
These are just some of the elements Paul Auster magically weaves together in this immensely moving novel about contemporary America and its ghosts. Sunset Park confirms Paul Auster as one of our greatest living writers.
