I Thought My Father Was God

Henry Holt and Co., 2002

A powerful collection of true stories from everyday Americans, gathered by master storyteller Paul Auster. When Paul Auster and NPR's Weekend All Things Considered introduced The National Story Project, the response was overwhelming. Letters, emails, and faxes poured in, with over 4,000 submissions in the first year alone. Everyone, it seemed, had a story to tell. I Thought My Father Was God brings together 180 of these fascinating, personal accounts in a single, captivating volume. Contributors from all walks of life across 42 states share vivid narratives that blend the ordinary and extraordinary. From humorous anecdotes to poignant reflections on love and loss, this collection showcases the rich tapestry of American experiences. Hilarious blunders, wrenching coincidences, brushes with death, miraculous encounters, improbable ironies, premonitions, sorrows, pains, and dreams - I Thought My Father Was God encompasses them all. A testament to the powerful role storytelling plays in our lives, this singular anthology offers a rare glimpse into the American soul, celebrating the diversity, resilience, and shared humanity that bind us together.
