ظل الريح | كارلوس زافون

An irresistible novel. In a short time I received universal praise all over the world. It contained secrets and mysteries that made them as seductive as Russian Matryoshka dolls.

Carlos Zafon managed to bring together García Márquez, Umberto Eco and Jorge Luis Borges in a charming and complex scene with insightful ingenuity and wondrous writing.
- The New York Times
High Gothic literature is said to have died out in the nineteenth century, while this book completely changes our idea. Zafon manages to tell a breathtaking epic tale that engages the reader in its hieroglyphs with unparalleled pleasure.
- Stephen King
It is hard for the reader to find a novel that contains as much emotion, tragedies, and excitement as Shadow of the Wind.
