The New York Trilogy: City of Glass/Ghosts/The Locked Room

Creepy and surreal, these three stories will twist your brain around so the world you know no longer makes sense. Paul Auster has an uncanny ability to create a parallel universe that seems identical to ours on the surface, but quickly shows itself to be strange and unpredictable. City of Glass, Ghosts, and The Locked Room draws you in and makes you feel safe, then pulls the rug out from underneath.
