"The latest and arguably most user-friendly among the whip-smart fiction canon of Paul Auster... [A] winning novel... In Sunset Park , Auster seems to carry all of humanity inside him." -Jan Stuart, The Boston Globe "A swift-moving, character-driven narrative, explores guilt, luck and our enduring need for human contact and a sense of belonging. Powerful... Readers might find their one regret is seeing the book end." -Doug Childers, Richmond Times-Dispatch "A haymaker of a contemporary American novel, realistic and serious as your life." -Jim Higgins, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "Exquisitely crafted, surprisingly tender...

    The shoes look great. But, I tried to cancel the order 2 hours after I purchased them, and I got a message saying it was too late to cancel. I looked, and there was no tracking number available . He was untruthful when he said it was too late to cancel. So, I think the seller is unprofessional, untruthful, and greedy. I would not by anything else from him ever again. I’m just grateful that I ended up liking the shoes.
