Carlos Ruiz Zafon: The orchestrator of literature

Americas Now

Many say that Carlos Ruiz Zafon is the second best author from Spain after Cervantes and he is considered the most read author in the world.

He started his career as a novelist for young adults and worked his way up into a bestselling author. He is the creator of the “Cemetery of Forgotten Books” tetralogy, a giant mechanism of literature.

Carlos’ works have been translated into over 40 languages and won several awards.

He spends half of his time in Barcelona, his home city, and Los Angeles, where he finds the time he needs for creative writing and playing the piano – his second passion.
