About The Brooklyn Follies
The Brooklyn Follies, published in 2005, is a novel by the acclaimed American author Paul Auster. It follows a small group of characters as they deal with difficult but relatable events, such as divorce, illness and disillusionment. The novel is set in pre-9/11 New York, and ends at exactly 8 am on the day of the deadly terrorist attacks. By linking the events in his book to this pivotal moment in American history and referring on multiple occasions to the election of President George W. Bush, Auster conceals a deeper political message beneath his apparently banal characters and their ordinary stories.
