“In The Lost, I draw on my own youth in a profound way. I lived that time with friends who believed in a better world. Although the protagonists of this novel bear no resemblance to real people, they are not entirely imaginary. I have drawn from my dreams, fantasies, and regrets as much as from my memories.”
The protagonists of this novel were inseparable in their youth, then dispersed, quarrels broke out between them, and time separated them. They will be reunited upon the death of one of their own. Some refused to leave their homelands, others emigrated to the United States, Brazil, or France, and their paths took them in different directions. What else do the liberated hotel owner, the entrepreneur who amassed a fortune, or the monk who withdrew from the world and devoted himself to meditation have in common? Some shared memories and an incurable longing for a time gone by.

Prisoner of Heaven
د.ا7.10After the shadow of the wind and the angel game, I ended my strange meeting with Carlos Zafon in the third part of the Tomb of Forgotten Books series in this piece that I read while trying to understand what was going on in his head, which wanted the prisoner of heaven to tell us the dark nights of Barcelona from the window of its prisons, that prison that embraced Martin for a long time and through which he excelled in writing The Game of the Angel, which was the hero of that novel David Martin and Isabella, and we got to know their end, which was not confirmed by the lines. The writer also explains that what we can consider a coincidence with us may be wisely studied and what we interact with with all honesty may be fake and obsolete as the first boot, the past is just images stuck in our heads and just a glance of it returns to expose itself, and opens new cracks in our hearts, pushing you to search and explore what the truth is and to what extent it can comfort you or in any proportion that may make you a wreckage between the legs, yet the search for it is The way of salvation,
