Published in 2023, a slim novel at just over 200 pages, it didn\u2019t disappoint and revisits many of his favourite themes.  The first chapter sets a comic scene.:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Baumgartner is sitting at his desk in the second-floor room he variously refers to as his study, his cogitorium, and his hole. Pen in hand, he is midway through a sentence in the third chapter of his monograph on Kierkegaard\u2019s pseudonyms  when it occurs to him that the book he needs to quote from in order to finish the sentence is downstairs in the living room, where he left it before going up to bed last night. It also occurred to him that he promised to call his sister this morning at ten o\u2019clock, and since it is almost ten now, he will go into the kitchen and make the call before retrieving the book from the living room.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>But he won\u2019t make the call\u2026<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">He\u2019d left a pan on the gas making his coffee earlier, and burns his hand taking it off.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">The doorbell rings: it\u2019s his regular delivery of books he\u2019d ordered arrive via the UPS lady Molly, who he always chats to.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">The phone rings: but even though it\u2019s now 1015, it\u2019s not Naomi \u2013 it\u2019s Rosita, the 12-year-old daughter of Mrs Flores his cleaner to tell him that Mr Flores has had an industrial accident, cutting two fingers off, so her mother won\u2019t be in today. He reassures the sobbing girl that they can sew the fingers back on these days.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">The doorbell  rings again: it\u2019s the meter-reader apologising for being late. Ed is rather garrulous, and eventually Baumgartner shows him into the cellar \u2013 going first down the rickety stairs \u2013 and falling, injuring his knee. Ed carries him up and after assessing him for consciousness, much to Sy\u2019s (they\u2019re on first name terms now) amusement amid the pain \u2013 promises to return later to help him.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>He falls asleep, book and call forgotten.  Amazingly, Ed does return, and Baumgartner is thankful for his help and friendship \u2013 Ed will return later.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a great opening. It\u2019s unusual for Auster to be so sustainedly comic, even farcical, over these twenty-five pages, but it gives us an insight into the life of Seymour \u2018Sy\u2019 Baumgartner; retired Princeton professor and author, living alone and sometimes lonely, but still writing, denying the gradual decay around him, occasionally forgetting, easily distracted. There is poignancy there though, which will amplify over subsequent chapters as he looks back over his life. <\/p>\n<p>In the second chapter, we get to know Baumgartner\u2019s late wife Anna a little.  She died ten years ago in a freak wave accident at the beach, he has always regretted that when she\u2019d said she was going back in the sea, that he hadn\u2019t persuaded her to stay.  She was a writer too, and her office, maintained as a shrine is full of her work still.  She favoured an old-fashioned typewriter over newer technology and had an old red telephone that he dreams she rang him on.  Moving stuff, but the dream frees him from his overpowering grief, and he decides to publish a book of her poems. A particularly touching paragraph shows him obsessively folding and refolding Anna\u2019s underwear soon after she died, while he was in limbo.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s in this section that Auster introduces, in book within a book style, an essay by Anna that Baumgartner finds and sits reading about her first real boyfriend, Frankie Boyle. (No, not that Frankie Boyle!). This was the time of \u2018Nam \u2013 \u2019nuff said.  This is the first of three such interludes, a second piece finds Anna writing about hers and Sy\u2019s early days together culminating with his proposal. A romantic piece, but not without its drama in an incident which shows Anna\u2019s character. A third essay chronicles Sy\u2019s visit to the Ukraine to seek out his family history, which combines a well-intentioned kind lady guide and a potentially shaggy dog story by a local poet about \u2018The Wolves of Stanislav\u2019. <\/p>\n<p>This last essay follows Baumgartner recalling memories of growing up, of the family business and breaking free.  It also names Baumgartner\u2019s mother as a \u2018Ruth Auster\u2019, although I know of no Ruth in Auster\u2019s own close family.  Previous chapters also looked at how he started dating again, and Judith, the well-heeled divorcee and old friend he\u2019s comtemplating asking to grow old with him. <\/p>\n<p>After that bravura opening, the novel settles down, like its protagonist, into a life of multiple threads and lesser dramas together with constant distractions until Auster engineers a rather sudden ending, cleverly leaving many ends untied as normal life would do. This is a novel of an ordinary life perhaps, but its easy to believe that Sy and Anna had an extraordinarily strong relationship. Despite being the scholarly philosopher, I found Sy to be empathetic and likeable, and maybe there\u2019s a bit of Paul Auster in him too. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-medium is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"182\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/annabookbel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Baumgartner-1.jpg?resize=300%2C182&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29981\" style=\"width:450px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/annabookbel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Baumgartner-1.jpg?resize=300%2C182&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/annabookbel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Baumgartner-1.jpg?resize=768%2C467&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/annabookbel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Baumgartner-1.jpg?w=823&amp;ssl=1 823w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/annabookbel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Baumgartner-2.jpg?resize=375%2C500&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29982\" style=\"width:206px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/annabookbel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Baumgartner-2.jpg?w=375&amp;ssl=1 375w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/annabookbel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Baumgartner-2.jpg?resize=300%2C400&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>In summary, <strong><em>Baumgartner <\/em><\/strong>is a gentle read and a witty ramble through favourite themes which I enjoyed very much.<\/p>\n<p>Before I leave you, there\u2019s space to share pictures of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.faber.co.uk\/product\/9780571388530-baumgartner-limited-edition\/?gad_source=1&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiAkoe9BhDYARIsAH85cDPyiHbdtIBYhW9Uv_c184eSpRWF6HjrSnlhdMyD3pkf3bsCtk3ZRYUaArpFEALw_wcB\">Faber Members Limited Signed Edition<\/a> with you, which I treated myself to.
