The Shadow of the Wind (The Cemetery of Forgotten Books)

Carlos RuizZafon LuciaGraves

• Penguin Books (2005年1月25日発売)

This is a translation from the Spanish so I needn't actually have bought it in English, but anyway.
It's georgeously weird, with lots of strange characters. The mystery is a little thin and the main protagonist is a bit of a cypher, but Zafon makes up for it with over the top language and lashings of gothic atmosphere. You may be disappointed if you're expecting the next Gabriel Garcia Marquez or even the next Stephen King; it's really quite a cheesy trash novel, but a uniquely satisfying one.
