Timbuktu (novel)

Timbuktu

"Mr Bones is the canine sidekick and confidant of Willy G. Christmas, a brilliant but troubled poet-saint from Brooklyn. Together they sally forth in search of Willy´s beloved high-school teacher, who years ago knew him in his previous incarnation as William Gurevitch, son of Polish war refugees."

"...Auster does a nimble job of showing what the world might feel like from a dog´s perspective... [Timbuktu] emerges as Auster´s most touching, most emotionally accessible book."
