Trips in the writing room, by: Paul Auster

In this book, "Oster gently celebrates the power of imagination, and admires the nature of the infinitely respectful, clever, and cunning philosophical mind for superior stories." "Book is not online" Mr. Blanc sits on the bed, alone and in pajamas, in a closed room. He does not know how he arrived at this room, which may seem like a prison or a hospital room. Who is Mr. Blanc? In the room, there is a table, and two stacks of papers arranged on a typewriter, and dozens of photographs. And in one day, where all the events of the novel revolve, Mr. Blanc receives several phone calls, and visits from some of the people in the photographs. But the names and faces mean nothing to Mr. Blanc, while it seems they know him well, and that they are waiting for something from him, some form of compensation or atonement! In a meticulous narrative craft that seems to recall the comedies of Pirandello and the narratives of Beckett at the same time, Paul Oster ventures into the writer's study to address the issue of the moral responsibility of the writer towards his fictional characters.
