Travels in the Scriptorium

About this book

An old man awakens, disoriented, in an unfamiliar chamber with no memory of who he is or what has happened. Identified only as Mr. Blank, he appears to be a prisoner under surveillance. A mysterious manuscript, fluid identities, and, somewhere, an obscure tormentor 'travels in the scriptorium' is vintage Paul Auster describing a world not so very different from our own.
