Paul Auster recommends
 Life: A User's Manual (1978) Georges Perec "A dazzling, crazy-quilt monument to the imagination." |  The Living End (1979) Stanley Elkin "Stanley Elkin's imagination should be declared a national landmark. When the moment comes to write the history of AMerican English in the late twentieth century, his novels will be a fundamental source." |  A Still Small Voice (2000) John Reed "A spellbinding novel of love and war, from a young writer of great promise." |
 The Seducer (2003) (Jonas Wergeland, book 1) Jan Kjærstad "An enormously accomplished and compelling novel." |  Voice Over (2007) Céline Curiol "Wonderful." |  The Gift of Numbers (2007) Yôko Ogawa "Highly original. Infinitely charming. And ever so touching." |
