In *Winter Journal*, acclaimed author Paul Auster turns his observant eye inward, creating an unconventional memoir cataloging his life through the lens of his own body. Facing the winter of his life, he recounts scars, illnesses, pleasures, and pains. From childhood accidents to the sensations of aging, Auster moves through memories of places lived, loves lost, and moments of profound connection. It is a deeply personal and universal meditation on what it means to inhabit a body, a candid exploration of mortality, memory, and the simple fact of being alive in the world.
