Carlos Ruiz Zafón - Lelkek labirintusa

Barcelona, ​​fifties. Daniel Sempere, who adopted the orphaned copy of The Shadow of the Wind in the Cemetery of Forgotten Books, is now a grown man and a family man. However, the dark secret obscuring the memory of his mother still oppresses him. Although his life is round, he has nightmares.
The first part of the novel series Cemetery of Forgotten Books, The Shadow of the Wind, was published in Spanish in 2001. The series quickly came to the forefront of contemporary literature, conquering five continents. His other plays are The Angel's Game, The Prisoner of Heaven and The Labyrinth of Souls.
The Labyrinth of Souls, like its predecessors, stands on its own, since "a story has neither a beginning nor an end, only entrances". The narrator expertly guides us through all the trials of all the characters - not only in this story, but also in the entire complicated history woven from 1900 to 1992. It leaves no important thread unspun. This time, Daniel's mother's painful secret is also revealed. Between the big and small games of politics, drama, love and incessant scheming, the comedian shines at the right moment: Fermín Romero de Torres takes the stage. "Copy ex machina."

Carlos Ruiz Zafón is the second most read Spanish writer worldwide after Cervantes. In 2014, Penguin Classics selected twenty-six classics in the history of world literature (one for each letter of the English alphabet) and awarded Z as Shadow of the Wind. Carlos Ruiz Zafón thus entered the company of Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, Marcel Proust and James Joyce.

The Cemetery of Forgotten Books has now become a universal symbol: a bastion of reading, a pledge of memory, a refuge for all those who believe in the completeness provided by books.
