The Shadow of the Wind, Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Translated by Lucia Graves
****
The Cemetary of Forgotton Books.
It sounds intriguing doesn’t it? It is. And that is just the first page. Trust me, this book is more intriguing than any other you will find on your mysterious shelves. For it combines mystery, romance, history, tales of war and a gothic creepiness that just seeps into you. It is about a book, it’s author and the entangled destruction of beauty, words and people. I refuse to give you even a character’s name, for I feel that you should step into The Shadow of the Wind clean of any details.
Take a chance. It’s a lovely jump into Barcelona. I will tell you that it is set in Barcelona.
