    Like The Book of Illusions, the novel that preceded it, Oracle Night is also about a relatively recent Auster theme - recovery; the ways in which damaged individuals reconstruct their lives after they have been broken almost beyond repair. As the book begins, Orr is recuperating from a serious illness that has left him, at 34, 'a mass of malfunctioning parts and neurological conundrums'.
    Zimmer, the narrator of The Book of Illusions, has 'lived for several months in a blur of alcohol grief and self-pity' after losing his wife and two sons in a plane crash.
    'Maybe it's my age, but I think I am going through a period of writing about debilitated men,' laughs Auster. 'I've started something new recently, and though it's very early days and things could change, this character, too, is somewhat wobbly. I don't know what it is except maybe this moment of my life, this sudden sense of encroaching mortality.'
    [...] I don't know where the ideas come from. I don't know how to explain the work I do. I can't defend it. I can't do anything but do it. Beyond that, I'm as ignorant as anybody.'

     Le dernier roman de Paul Auster qui tarde à sortir chez nous (le dernier était sorti en avant-première : je n'ai toujours pas compris l'astuce !) est de la typique, typique névrose austérienne. Cool...
