Thanks, Patrick!

I'm glad you mentioned your book. I will look it up!

I only became aware of Auster's work a few years ago. He's been at it for a long time and has dozens of books.

And I love your line about people we are closest to having lives we never know about. I've been working on a piece about that for a long time, but it hasn't fully formed yet.

I'm glad to know you and look forward to your book and other work!

Chris
