Paul Auster is one of the most highly studied postmodern writers, and his novels have been regularly cited as paradigmatic instances of postmodern fiction. In view of the ongoing theoretical debate over postmodernism's demise, it seems essential to investigate Auster's conception of the nature of this paradigm, the issues it raises, and possible remedies. The purpose of this article is to look at two types of characters from the Austerian cosmos who symbolize two major influences on the novelist: Ludwig Wittgenstein's philosophy and American transcendentalism concepts
