Illustrated by Vincent Chong
In 2004, Ruiz made a spectacular English language debut with The Shadow of the Wind, a brilliantly constructed novel set in Barcelona in the aftermath of World War 2. Its central symbol and most indelible image was an intricate Borgesian library called the Cemetery of Forgotten Books. The Angel's Game is also set in Barcelona and also revisits the mysterious Cemetery. It is, however, not really a sequel nor a prequel, but an independent narrative that elaborates a coherent, increasingly complex fictional universe.
