“My husband was diagnosed with cancer in December, after having been ill for several months prior,” Siri Hastvit wrote. And she continued: “I live in a place that I have come to call the country of cancer.” She continued: “Many of its borders have crossed, whether because they themselves are sick or were sick, or because one of their loved ones, a relative, child, husband, or friend, is or has had cancer.” Auster’s wife explains what kind of cancer the novelist suffers from.

Siri Hustvedt married the famous American writer Paul Auster in 1981, and they have a daughter named Sophie Auster,
