Résumé
"The City of Forbidden Books immerses the reader in an agile and entertaining reading through dizzying plots and an exquisite historical setting. A surprising literary debut that is hard to put down. Year 68 of our era: the peaceful Hispanic… colony of Augusta Emerita is involved in surprising events that will test the faith and courage of its inhabitants. The City of Forbidden Books weaves a labyrinth of intrigues in which the characters will lose their souls in order to be reborn free and recover their ideals. In the pages of this book we witness the virulence of some deaths that will eventually bring to light some prophetic books that pursue powerful imperial groups willing to do anything to prevent their dissemination. The plot serves the author to show us the portrait of a fascinating society with its cults, its laws, its gods, its leisure or its image. A great love story, which runs through the novel, makes us reflect on the value of friendship, loyalty and duty." -- Translation provided by NLS
