Dark Print: Concerning City of Glass

After much time spent in silent meditation I have conciously chosen to break my vow of silence.

For any of you who have not read Paul Auster's City of Glass, I would highly recommend both the novella and the graphic novel. What begins as a noir detective story set in New York City transforms itself into a many-layered commentary on the link between the nature of language and the nature of identity.
