bryangball 's review for:
The Shadow of the Wind
by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
Books aren’t written like “The Shadow of the Wind” anymore, but Carlos Ruiz Zafon managed to write one. This is a big, sweeping, epic novel filled with the Gothic, romances, horrors, mysteries, the supernatural (possibly), family, war and other high tragedies. This book does take its time, but I think therein lies its appeal. The story of Daniel and his father, and how a novel he finds buried in the Cemetery of Forgotten Books (I want to go there yes please), is a beautiful story on the importance of literature and the impact of the art of writing and fiction has on our lives.
