El Literato --La Sombra del Viento
Tuesday, August 2, 2022, 6:00pm - 7:00pm
Join us for our first meeting of El Literato Athens-Clarke County Library's bilingual book club as we discuss LA SOMBRA DEL VIENTO by Carlos Ruiz Zafón. Goodreads quote from the back cover: "Barcelona, 1945: A city slowly heals from its war wounds, and Daniel, an antiquarian book dealer's son who mourns the loss of his mother, finds solace in a mysterious book entitled The Shadow of the Wind, by one Julian Carax. But when he sets out to find the author's 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 Carax's books in existence. Soon Daniel's seemingly innocent quest opens a door into one of Barcelona's darkest secrets--an epic story of murder, madness, and doomed love."

"Since its publication, La sombra del viento has garnered critical acclaim around the world and has won numerous international awards. Ruiz Zafón's works have been published in more than 40 countries and have been translated into more than 30 languages."--Goodreads
