A man who constantly stares at the sky, imitating passersby out of curiosity. A painter who sits on the ground, drawing artwork on the street to earn some money. An acrobat performs her tricks, impressing passersby and making a living. Three people come together under the clear Chilean sky, composing a symphony that brings a touch of sweetness and joy to those who see them, while the country lives under the yoke of corruption. The painter and the acrobat accompany the man on an unexpected journey north, to “the clearest sky in the universe,” without realizing any secrets that lie in that distant north… A novel that tells a great deal about memory, love, and oppression.

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,
