The Shadow Of The Wind
Carlos Ruiz Zafon
487 pages
Barcelona, 1945: a city slowly heals in the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War, and Daniel, an antiquarian book dealerโs son who mourns the loss of his mother, finds solace in a mysterious book entitled The Shadow of the Wind, by one Juliรกn Carax.
But when he sets out to find the authorโs other works, he makes a shocking discovery: someone has been systematically destroying every copy of every book Carax has written. In fact, Daniel may have the last of Caraxโs books in existence. Soon Danielโs seemingly innocent quest opens a door into one of Barcelonaโs darkest secretsโan epic story of murder, madness, and doomed love.
