tarascon:
Suggest a book to read or mention what you are currently reading or plan to read soon.
The genre is open and so is the approach; you can write a long review or simply post a title/author you'd like to share.
The last book I read was The Book of Air & Shadows by M. Gruber which I enjoyed. Today I began Bartleby & Co. by Enrique Vila-Matas.

Now that you mention a Catalan author I recall La sombra del viento by Carlos Ruiz Zafón. Beautiful!!
tarascon:
^ Yes, yes, yes!
Also check out The Book of Disquiet by Lisbon born author Fernando Pessoa.

It's Public Domain so I'm checking it out right now. Looks pretty crazy.
tarascon:
^ He was a very cool, very bizarre person.
Btw, did you read Zafon in the original? I did not. :)
