Interview with NPR's Scott Simon
Scott Simon speaks to Siri about her new book, Ghost Stories.
"Paul Auster once told his wife and partner of 43 years, Siri Hustvedt, that he wanted to live on as a ghost. And he inhabits each page in just about every phrase and breath, ever haunting - there is no way around that word, memoir - Ghost Stories, which recounts their lives in the loss of Paul. The great novelist died in 2024 at the age of 77, a little over a year after being diagnosed with cancer."
