An epic of the 14th century which follows the entire life of a Barcelona boy and the cathedral he comes to love and helps to build. Powerful, moving, engrossing, it charts his rises and falls as well as those of the city. Highly evocative, rich in detail, one of the most compelling historical novels of the year, Cathedral of the Sea has a rare depth and sensitivity. It’s weighty and well worth getting lost in, one of those books you mourn as the end draws near.
Comparison: Ken Follett, Carlos Ruiz Zafon, Neal Stephenson.
