This fanmix is inspired by Paul Auster's 2002 novel, The Book of Illusions. It, along with the illustration that is the cover art, serves as my "aesthetic interpretation" of the book, an assignment for one of my classes.

All the songs on this mix remind me of the book in some way. Some of them relate to the tone and mood of the story, some relate to particular notions about the characters,

Notes on why I chose each song are in the annotations.
