reading and getting inspired by Paul Auster

I think it's the fourth novel by Paul Auster that I'm reading at the moment. Very inspiring! Although his works tend to be rather dark, moody, or depressing, whereas I prefer reading fun stuff, I adore Auster for his imagery and power of expression. He is actually quite easy to read even for foreigners, an aspect that only adds to the quality. Here's a citation:

"There are many realities. There's no single world. There are many worlds, and they all run parallel to one another, worlds and anti-worlds, worlds and shadow-worlds, and each world is dreamed or imagined or written by someone in another world. Each world is the creation of a mind."
[Paul Auster, Man in the Dark, London: Faber and Faber, 2008, p. 69]

Note the short sentences, the simple words, the precision! The existence of multiple parallel worlds is actually a quite valid physical and philosophical speculation.

I should possibly note that I've begun reading "Man in the Dark" a couple of weeks AFTER writing "you were my dream". JFYI
