Synopsis of Audición

Audition is a fascinating novel by Katie Kitamura that explores how people we love see us. The plot follows a woman and a man who meet in a Manhattan restaurant. She, an accomplished actress, is rehearsing for her next play; he, a young man trying to impress her.

The novel, compared to the work of Paul Auster, invites the reader to participate in a narrative game that questions love, art, and identity.
