City of Glass inaugurates the intriguing New York Trilogy of novels that The Washington Post Book World has classified as "post-existential private eye. . . . It's as if Kafka has gotten hooked on the gumshoe game and penned his own ever-spiraling version." The brilliant installments of Paul Auster's The New York Trilogy include:
