"Loneliness of loneliness" is the debut of Paul Oster, the author of the "Book of Illusions", "Mr. Vertigo", "New York trilogy", "Timbuktu", "Temple of the Moon".
Loneliness is a through theme of the book. Sometimes it is a punishment, as in the case of the biblical ion, which ended up in the womb of the whale. Sometimes - a gift, a voluntary decision to isolate from others in order to hear yourself. Loneliness allows you to create your own world, make it invisible and incomprehensible to others.
After the death of man, this world, which he carefully protected from the invasion, becomes vulnerable. This happened after the death of the father of the protagonist. Throughout his life, the father seemed to his son a mysterious, "invisible" person who is difficult to understand, who would never be completely revealed to even relatives. And only after the death of his father, his son was able to restore his life in small fragments, to discover secrets that were not intended for strangers, to re -find out who, as it turned out, he was almost not familiar
