The labyrinth of the spirits
Ruiz Zafón, Carlos, 1964-2018
Book
As a child, Daniel Sempere discovered among the passageways of the Cemetery of Forgotten Books an extraordinary novel that would change the course of his life. Now a young man in the Barcelona of the late 1950s, Daniel runs the Sempere & Sons bookshop and enjoys a seemingly fulfilling life with his loving wife and son. Yet the mystery surrounding the death of his mother continues to plague his soul. Just when Daniel believes he is close to solving this enigma, a conspiracy more sinister than he could have imagined spreads its tentacles from the hellish Franco regime. That is when Alicia Gris appears. Born out of the nightmare of the war, she is the one who will lead Daniel to the edge of the abyss and reveal the secret history of his family - but at what terrifying price.
