Synopsis "El Palacio de la Luna (in Spanish)"

Marco Stanley Fogg es un huérfano que ha crecido bajo el cobijo de su tío Victor, un clarinetista de poca fortuna. Cuando éste muere, consigue vivir durante un período de la venta de los libros que le ha dejado en herencia. En el tiempo en que el hombre camina por primera vez sobre la Luna, M. S. Fogg inicia un viaje de búsqueda de su identidad y sus orígenes que lo llevará de Manhattan al remoto Oeste norteamericano.
El Palacio de la Luna es una de las novelas más emblemáticas de Paul Auster, una narración de historias cruzadas que convergen de forma magistral. Ésta es, en definitiva, una muestra más de su magnífico arte narrativo.
«Esta novela irónica y magnética resplandece con imágenes lunares y, como la Luna, fascina.»
