Synopsis "Viajes por el Scriptorium (in Spanish)"

Míster Blank, el «señor en blanco», es un anciano que está encerrado en una habitación blanca. No recuerda quién es ni por qué está allí. Hay cámaras que registran todos sus movimientos y recibe visitas de extraños personajes, desconocidos para él pero familiares para los lectores de Auster. A lo largo de las páginas de un informe detallado se irá construyendo la identidad de Míster Blank quien, a su vez, intentará hallar los motivos de su reclusión en la lectura de un misterioso manuscrito.Viajes por el Scriptorium es una brillante narración con conciencia, una reflexión sobre la creación literaria con la que Paul Auster homenajea la literatura.«Paul Auster brinda a los lectores una de sus obras más austerianas.»Javier Aparicio Maydeu, El País
