'Six days ago, a man blew himself up by the side of a road in
northern Wisconsin . . .' The explosion that detonates the
narrative of Paul Auster's remarkable novel also ends the life of
its hero, Benjamin Sachs, and brings two FBI agents to the home of
one of Sachs's oldest friends, the writer Peter Aaron. What follows
is Aaron's story, an intricate, subtle and gripping investigation
of another man's life in all its richness and complexity. Combining
an investigation of freedom and terrorism with all the tension,
mystery and allusive richness familiar from Auster's The New York
Trilogy or Sunset Park, Leviathan is an unmissable addition to the
canon of 'one of America's most spectacularly inventive writers.'
(Times Literary Supplement) '[A] Brownian motion experiment of a
plot - chock-a-block with identity-swaps, sideways sweeps and
lateral leaps.' Observer
