This program is narrated by-and includes a benefit interview with-the publisher. Paul Auster's very best, most heartbreaking and gratifying novel-a sweeping and shocking story of birthright and opportunity, of love and of life itself: a masterpiece. Nearly two weeks early on, on March 3, 1947, in the maternity ward of Beth Israel Hospital in Newark, New Jersey, Archibald Isaac Ferguson, the best child of Rose and Stanley Ferguson, is born. From that single beginning, Ferguson's life will take four simultaneous and independent fictional pathways. Four identical Fergusons made of the same DNA, four males who are the same boy, continue to lead four parallel and totally different lives. Family fortunes diverge. Athletic skills and making love lives and friendships and intellectual passions compare. Each Ferguson falls under the spell of the wonderful Amy Schneiderman, yet each Amy and each Ferguson have a marriage like no other. In the meantime, listeners will take in each Ferguson's pleasures and ache from each Ferguson's aches, as the mortal story of each Ferguson's life rushes on. As inventive and dexterously made as anything Paul Auster has ever before written, yet with a interest for realism and a great tenderness and fierce attachment to record also to life itself that listeners have never been told from Auster before. 4 3 2 1 is a marvelous and unforgettably influencing tour de make.
