  在巴塞隆納的光與影中,人性、愛欲、仇恨重重交疊,飄蕩如風中的幻影。  21世紀席捲全球50餘國、狂銷400萬冊的國際文壇颶風
  一部融合了驚悚、推理、歷史、純愛與存在主義的動人故事  書是鏡子,人只能在書裡看到自己的內心。  十歲少年達尼在「遺忘書之墓」偶然找到一本胡立安.卡拉斯的小說《風之影》,讀了之後深為著迷,於是開始尋找作者的其他作品,卻發現小說中虛構的惡魔竟現身巴塞隆納街頭,到處搜索、焚毀胡立安的著作。一場單純的文學尋根之旅,意外開啟了通往巴塞隆納黑暗過去的大門。當神祕作者胡立安的輪廓一點一滴浮現,達尼的人生逐漸和他產生重疊,並將身邊的人全都捲入死亡與殺戮的陰影……  BARCELONA, 1945—JUST AFTER THE WAR, A GREAT WORLD CITY LIES IN SHADOW, NURSING ITS WOUNDS, AND A BOY NAMED DANIEL AWAKES ON HIS ELEVENTH BIRTHDAY TO FIND THAT HE CAN NO LONGER REMEMBER HIS MOTHER’S FACE. TO CONSOLE HIS ONLY CHILD, DANIEL’S WIDOWED FATHER, AN ANTIQUARIAN BOOK DEALER, INITIATES HIM INTO THE SECRET OF THE CEMETERY OF FORGOTTEN BOOKS, A LIBRARY TENDED BY BARCELONA’S GUILD OF RARE-BOOK DEALERS AS A REPOSITORY FOR BOOKS FORGOTTEN BY THE WORLD, WAITING FOR SOMEONE WHO WILL CARE ABOUT THEM AGAIN. DANIEL’S FATHER COAXES HIM TO CHOOSE A VOLUME FROM THE SPIRALING LABYRINTH OF SHELVES, ONE THAT, IT IS SAID, WILL HAVE A SPECIAL MEANING FOR HIM. AND DANIEL SO LOVES THE NOVEL HE SELECTS, THE SHADOW OF THE WIND BY ONE JULIAN CARAX, THAT HE SETS OUT TO FIND THE REST OF CARAX’S WORK. TO HIS SHOCK, HE DISCOVERS THAT SOMEONE HAS BEEN SYSTEMATICALLY DESTROYING EVERY COPY OF EVERY BOOK THIS AUTHOR HAS WRITTEN. IN FACT, HE MAY HAVE THE LAST ONE IN EXISTENCE. BEFORE DANIEL KNOWS IT HIS SEEMINGLY INNOCENT QUEST HAS OPENED A DOOR INTO ONE OF BARCELONA’S DARKEST SECRETS, AN EPIC STORY OF MURDER, MAGIC, MADNESS AND DOOMED LOVE.
