Shadow of the Wind

I just read the last pages of a thick novel by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. The original name of the novel is "La Sombra del Viento". It tells about a young boy, whose father owns a bookshop. The boy gets a mysterious book, and he starts to unravel the fate of the author of this book. And everything happens in Barcelona in the 1930s and 1940s. It is a good book.

Last year I read another book of Barcelona, "Cathedral of the Sea" (La Catedral del Mar) by Ildefonso Falcones. It told about this Spanish town in years 1300-1500. It was also good.

And during my stay in Thailand I happened to found in The Chiangmai White House guesthouse a very good book of Sera Beak: "The Red Book" ( A Deliciously Unorthodox Approuch to Igniting Your Divine Spark).
