The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón (Part 1)
In post-war Barcelona, a young boy named Daniel discovers a mysterious novel, The Shadow of the Wind, only to learn that someone has been systematically destroying every copy of the author's works. As he delves into the book's secrets, Daniel becomes entangled in a dark, decades-old mystery of love, betrayal, and revenge that mirrors the story within the pages. Atmospheric, haunting, and full of twists, Carlos Ruiz Zafón's novel is a captivating ode to literature and its secrets.
