Carlos Ruiz Zafón reading and booksigning for "The Shadow of the Wind" Monday, February 7th at 7pm at The Booksmith (1644 Haight Street in San Francisco)
"The Shadow of the Wind" - a runaway bestseller in Spain - is the story of an antiquarian book dealer who initiates his son into the secrets of the Cemetery of Forgotten Books, a library tended by rare book dealers as a repository for books forgotten by the world. As one Spanish reviewer wrote, "The originality of Carlos Ruiz Zafón voice is bombproof and displays a diabolical talent."
Carlos Ruiz Zafón grew up in Barcelona. "The Shadow of the Wind" - which has been published in more than 20 countries - spent more than a year on the Spanish bestseller list, much of it at number one. "Shadow is the real deal . . . a novel where even the subplots have subplots . . . this is one gorgeous read." - Stephen King.
