A vintage man awakens, disoriented, in an unfamiliar chamber. Without memory of who he's or how he is here there, he pores over the relics on the desk, examining the circumstances of his confinement and searching his own hazy mind for clues. Determining that he's locked in, the man-identified only as Mr. Blank-begins reading a manuscript he finds on the desk, the story of another prisoner, occur another world the person doesn't recognize. Nevertheless, the pages appear to own been left for him, plus a haunting group of photographs. As your day passes, various characters ask the person in his cell-vaguely familiar people, some who appear to resent him for crimes he can't remember-and each brings frustrating hints of his identity and his past. Even while an overhead camera clicks and clicks, recording his movements, and a microphone records every sound in the room. Someone is watching. Both chilling and poignant, Travels in the Scriptorium is vintage Paul Auster: mysterious texts, fluid identities, a concealed past, and, somewhere, an obscure tormentor. Yet, as we discover during one day in the life of Mr. Blank, his world is not so different from our own.
