Paul Benjamin Auster (born February 3, 1947, Newark, New Jersey) is a Brooklyn-based author known for works blending absurdism and crime fiction, such as The New York Trilogy (1987), Moon Palace (1989) and The Brooklyn Follies (2005).
Set in the late 1980s, the story is written from the perspective of David Zimmer, a university professor who, after losing his wife and children in a plane crash, falls into a routine of depression and isolation. After seeing one of the silent comedies of Hector Mann, an actor missing since the 1920s, he decides to occupy himself by watching all of Mann's films and writing a book about them. The publishing of the book, however, triggers another series of events that draw Zimmer even deeper into the actor's past.
The middle of the story is largely dedicated to telling the life story of Hector Mann, involving his self-imposed exile from his past life and career, which serves as a form of penance for his role in the death of a woman who loved him. In his last days, his wife sends a letter to Zimmer, requesting him to come to their New Mexico home to bear witness to Mann's final legacy of films. The events that ensue form the overarching story of Zimmer's rehabilitation from his reclusive state, and his coming to terms with the manner in which his family was killed.

评分其中间隔了回云南的一个月,《幻影书》是在这个月之前和之后读完的。在之前的那个时期里,我正在处于人生的一个过渡而模糊的奇异阶段里,一方面异常沉醉于那种风清月明的身心状态,一方面又坐立不安地为将来作了几个简单的决定。之后我就回了云南。 在说吧等正在赶来的...
评分刚读完了保罗·奥斯特的《幻影书》(谢谢陈雷MM送给我的书),两天两夜时间,读了两遍,在我的读书历史上比较少见。 作为小说,它并不是没有缺陷的,它最大的缺陷就是太好看了。如果以小说的价值来排列的话,目前看到的三本奥斯特小说,可以排列如下,《幻影书》<《纽约三部...

评分语言优美 保罗奥斯特的英语语感和独特的叙述节奏应该来源自法语
