Product Information
A New York Times Bestseller From the bestselling author of Invisible and The New York Trilogy comes a new novel set during the 2008 economic collapse. Sunset Park opens with twenty-eight-year-old Miles Heller trashing out foreclosed houses in Florida, the latest stop in his flight across the country. When Miles falls in love with Pilar Sanchez, he finds himself fleeing once again, going back to New York, where his family still lives, and into an abandoned house of young squatters in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Woven together from various points of view--that of Miles's father, an independent book publisher trying to stay afloat, Miles's mother, a celebrated actress preparing her return to the New York stage, and the various men and women who live in the house--"Auster seems to carry all of humanity inside him" (Jan Stuart, The Boston Globe ).

Reviews
"The latest and arguably most user-friendly among the whip-smart fiction canon of Paul Auster... [A] winning novel... In Sunset Park , Auster seems to carry all of humanity inside him." -Jan Stuart, The Boston Globe "A swift-moving, character-driven narrative, explores guilt, luck and our enduring need for human contact and a sense of belonging. Powerful... Readers might find their one regret is seeing the book end." -Doug Childers, Richmond Times-Dispatch "A haymaker of a contemporary American novel, realistic and serious as your life." -Jim Higgins, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "Exquisitely crafted, surprisingly tender... A story grounded in the potent emotions of love, loss, regret and vengeance, and the painful reality of current day calamities like evictions and bankruptcies." -Jane Ciabattari, NPR.ORG "Books We Like", Paul Auster is one of those sages with confounding talent--confounding for one because he's simply that good... He belongs among Vonnegut, Roth, and DeLillo... Now is the time to herald the Post-Recession Novel. Sunset Park looks to be it., Exquisitely crafted, surprisingly tender... A story grounded in the potent emotions of love, loss, regret and vengeance, and the painful reality of current day calamities.... Auster fans and newcomers will find in Sunset Park his usual beautifully nuanced prose.... [and] a tremendous crash bang of an ending., Passionately literary... every element is saturated with implication as each wounded, questing character's story illuminates our tragic flaws and profound need for connection, coherence, and beauty. In a time of daunting crises and change, Auster reminds us of lasting things, of love, art, and 'the miraculous strangeness of being alive.', The latest and arguably most user-friendly among the whip-smart fiction canon of Paul Auster... [A] winning novel... In Sunset Park , Auster seems to carry all of humanity inside him., Auster deftly balances minute details that evoke New York City, post-financial meltdown, with marvelously drawn characters bruised but unbowed by life's vicissitudes. He has an impressive array of literary nominations to his credit, but this should be the novel that brings him a broader readership., Auster has delivered an emotionally appealing book about the varieties of modern love... The son-father story is in fact the warmest line of narrative Auster has ever written, outside of the man and the dog story in his much earlier novel, Timbuktu, and it lends the entire novel a certain provident heat., "Paul Auster is one of those sages with confounding talent-confounding for one because he''s simply that good...

While we still teeter on the brink of recession in an uncertain economic recovery-with millions still out of work and losing their homes-this novel is probably one of the most important literary touchstones of our era.
