Review:
"Delightful...A gracious and humane tale...One can only marvel at Auster's artistry. -T"he Boston Sunday Globe" "Auster writes in a voice so clear, so mesmerizing, and so profound...[he] is unafraid of his own power, precisely because he has acknowledged humiliation's alchemy, its way of letting words vibrate at whatever weird, golden velocity they wish, "Hand to Mouth "vibrates...beautiful." -Wayne Koestenbaum, "Bookforum" "Required, inspiring reading for Auster-holics and aspiring writers." -"Kirkus Reviews" "An engaging account of his early attempts to stay afloat as a writer...with a colorful cast of sharply etched characters who he meets along the way." -"Chicago Tribune" "As a cautionary tale for writers, this is a superb book." -"Publishers Weekly"
