Paul Auster's The New York Trilogy

Dive into the mind-bending world of Paul Auster's "The New York Trilogy" in this graphic novel adaptation. This collection brings together three post-modern noir tales where language itself becomes the prime suspect. The trilogy includes "City of Glass", where a detective fiction author descends into madness while investigating a murder. "Ghosts" follows private eye Blue as he trails a man named Black for a client called White, leading to the protagonist's downfall. Finally, "The Locked Room" features an author grappling with writer's block who seeks to solve the disappearance of his childhood friend.

Paul Karasik masterfully directs these adaptations, with "City of Glass" illustrated by David Mazzucchelli, "Ghosts" by Lorenzo Mattotti, and "The Locked Room" adapted and drawn by Karasik himself. This edition marks the first time the latter two parts of the trilogy appear as graphic novels, transforming Auster's sophisticated wordplay into a visually stunning and immensely fun reading experience.
