New-York-Trilogie #[nn]

Three landmark Paul Auster novellas — Stadt aus Glas, Schlagschatten, and Hinter verschlossenen Türen — find new life in this German-language graphic omnibus from Reprodukt, with the graphic adaptations handled by Paul Karasik, Lorenzo Mattotti, and David Mazzucchelli. The cover presents a striking triptych composition: a single man's face is divided horizontally into three bands, each rendered in a distinct black-and-white graphic style, with a New York City skyline, bare winter trees, and tangled abstract forms layered across his features — a quietly unsettling portrait of fragmented identity. At 29 EUR, this 2025 hardcover is a compelling way to experience one of modern literature's most celebrated explorations of urban alienation translated into the visual language of comics.
