by Paul Auster (Author)

A "beautiful and haunting" (San Francisco Chronicle) novel of an orphan's search for love, for his unknown father, and for the key to the elusive riddle of his fate, from New York Times bestselling author Paul Auster

"Auster is a master storyteller . . . Moon Palace shimmers with mysteries."--The Washington Post Book World

Marco Stanley Fogg is an orphan, a child of the sixties, a quester tirelessly seeking the key to his past, the answers to the ultimate riddle of his fate. As Marco journeys from the canyons of Manhattan to the deserts of Utah, he encounters a gallery of characters and a series of events as rich and surprising as any in modern fiction.

Beginning during the summer that men first walked on the moon, and from there moving backward and forward in time to span three generations, Moon Palace is propelled by coincidence and memory, illuminated by marvelous flights of lyricism and wit. Here is an entertaining and moving novel from an author well known for his breathtaking imagination.
