'Your Face Tomorrow is already being compared with Proust and
rightly so' Observer 'One of contemporary literature's major works
... you have to open this book' Ali Smith The concluding part in
Javier Marias' spy trilogy masterwork Jacques Deza is back in
London and once again working for the secret intelligence agency
run by Bertram Tupra. Deza finds himself forced to watch Tupra's
collection of incriminating videotapes of important public figures.
The recordings document unconventional private lives - and horrific
acts. The scenes enter him like a poison, contaminating everything
good, yet he is powerless to counteract them. Set against a
background of brutality, Poison, Shadow and Farewell asks whether
violence can ever be justified and completes the extraordinary
journey that has led us on a descent into hell and a re-emergence,
not entirely unscathed, into life.
