The Shadow of the Wind
“In the same way as The Da Vinci Code, Carlos Ruiz Zafón’s complex thriller The Shadow of the Wind has proved a runaway, word-of-mouth success across Europe. In Zafón’s native Barcelona, you are the odd one out if you haven’t read it.”
“The story is about a boy who sets out to discover the truth behind the strange past of an obscure writer. But its success is due partly to the way it evokes the Gothic gloom of post-civil-war Barcelona.”
Sounds a good read, you can get it from Amazon as well.
