Abstract: As part of their literary manifestations, both Auster and Foer employ to a great extent various intertextual and intermedial features such as films retold by the characters in the novels, stories heard or read, images or articles drawn from magazines or elsewhere, excerpts from poems, theatre or novels, letters written by imaginary characters, photographs, all these contributing to the overall frame constituting the identity metafictions belonging to the two authors.
