Oh man-- you aint never read Auster? You
should-- he's a great writer! His novel, The
New York Trilogy, has the New York Mets as a subplot! The New
York Mets are also featured in the screenpaly he wrote for the
film Smoke.
His oeuvre-- saturated with hopelessness, unfulfilled
desire, and lonliness-- can easily be appreciated by any Mets fan.
