Books read in 2022: 1. The Prisoner of Heaven - Carlos Ruiz Zafón
The third entry in the series follows up the 1st, provides a new perspective on the 2nd and ties up loose ends from both but feels more like a short stepping stone to the finale than its own story. Good fun though
That doesn’t really explain what the book’s actually about... it’s a Gothic historical drama/mystery about nationalism, identity, love, madness and generational trauma after the Spanish Civil War, with a sinister melancholy atmosphere and flashes of humour
