Baumgartner A tender masterpiece of love, memory and loss from one of the world's great writers.

Wie alle Bücher von Paul Auster gut geschrieben und interessanter Inhalt. . Vor allem für Männer von sechzig und mehr sehr instruktiv. Empfehlenswertes Buch., flüssig und sehr Leser freundlich geschrieben.

Baumgartner is the first novel I have read by Paul Auster and surely won't be the last one. Following the story of Sy Baumgartner, a widower of ten years, the reader gets to know not just the protagonist, but his dead wife as well. Left alone by his one true love, Baumgartner not just struggles with life, but also in finding himself. After 10 years of grieving, there seems to be a sudden turn in events. Highly readable and eloquently written novel!
