| Book Description | After Martin Luther King was assassinated, Ray was able to escape with a forged passport, and as he moved from one country to another, he kept reading the newspapers, delighted to see his name on the list of “the ten most dangerous criminals wanted by the FBI.” His journey finally lands him in Lisbon, where he spends ten days waiting for a visa to enter Angola.But that Lisbon was also the city that inspired Antonio Muñoz Molina, his most famous novel, and now he decided to write a novel about Ray. The city has become a witness to three alternating stories: a murderous man on the run from justice, a writer struggling to find his literary voice, and the same writer, thirty years later, contemplating his life, the life of his hero, and the form of the novel in which he tries to imagine the world with the consciousness of another man. In “Like a Shadow Departing.” Shortlisted for the International Booker Prize in 2018, Molina writes a novel that is captivating, powerful, and full of detail, integrating the fictional event with how to write about it. |
