RIP Paul Auster - revisiting Mazzuchelli’s adaptation of city of glass 1 1

[Corvonie]

RIP Paul Auster.  Loved your novels, loved many of the movies adapted from them (eg The Music of Chance), and especially love the comics adaptation of City of Glass.  If you ever have a question about why David Mazzuchelli is an absolute master, read City of Glass and realize you could probably orient yourself and navigate Grand Central Terminal and the surrounding area using solely his interiors and exteriors.

Kind of like Peckinpah or Raimi, you never lose sense of where you are and what it is happening, regardless of how chaotic things get.
