In 2006 he was awarded the Prince of Asturias Prize for Literature.

In 2012, he was the first recipient of the NYC Literary Honors in the category of fiction. He has also been a finalist for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award (The Book of Illusions), the PEN/Faulkner Award (The Music of Chance), the Edgar Award (City of Glass), and the Man Booker Prize (4 3 2 1).

He lives in Brooklyn, New York. Product Description Several months into his recovery from a near-fatal illness, thirty-four-year-old novelist Sidney Orr enters a stationery shop in the Cobble Hill section of Brooklyn and buys a blue notebook. It is September 18, 1982, and for the next nine days Orr will live under the spell of this blank book, trapped inside a world of eerie premonitions and bewildering events that threaten to destroy his marriage and undermine his faith in reality. A novel that expands to fill volumes in the readers mind, Oracle Night is a beautifully constructed meditation on time, love, storytelling, and the imagination by one of the great writers of our time (San Francisco Chronicle). Review As Austers many admirers know, his narrative voice is as hypnotic as that of the Ancient Mariner. Start one of his books and by page two you cannot choose but hear. ?Michael Dirda, The New York Review of Books Compulsively readable yet wonderfully complex and unsettling. The book is both a babushka doll of stories within stories and a literary Rubiks Cube, the solution of which, if there is one, is the very nature of reality. ?The Boston Globe Auster shines as a fabulist and tale-teller, putting a high-modernist gloss on noir. ?The New Yorker A joy to read. ?The Economist Its urban mysticism, a poetry of the hidden and the almost forgotten, with the supernatural power deriving equally from the city and the novelists imagination. . . . A snow globe of a novel. ?New York magazine Oracle Night is a triumph for novelist Auster. It cements his growing reputation as one of Americas most inventive and original writers. ?The Seattle Times Importado, textos en ingles!!!
