Author 1 | Antonio Munoz Molina |
Editorial Review | Antonio Munoz Molina is a true original and has written a book unlike anything else part fiction, part memoir, part meditation, in which the interiority of a murderer on the run - and not just any murderer but James Earl Ray, the assassin of Martin Luther King - is set against the interiority of the writer, when young, trying to find his voice. The stories of the killer and the writer circle each other, interrogate and echo each other, and then diverge. A novel is a kind of refuge too |
