Beskrivelse
Authors of The Menaced Assassin, The Other Planet and Red Moon/Red Lake, the noted collaborative team of Ascher/Straus contemplates the materials of the writer’s life-"what gets cannibalized into fiction but doesn’t get treated as fiction itself"-in this new work, which explores the boundary between novel and notebook. A novel that takes up the tasks of the journal I can also be read as a journal that documents the materials in the novel. In ABC Street the narrative of place and life of the mind work together to build up a panoramic view of related lives with no epic pretensions.
Ascher/Straus live and work in New York.
