Description
Book SynopsisAwarded the Alejo Carpentier Award in 2012, The Last Librarian follows the journey of a writer who has decided, as a way of honoring the artists who have meant the most to him, to visit and deposit a single book within each of the Seven Libraries of the World. Morales’s novel is a profound meditation on the origins and meaning of writing, time, and the act of artistic creation.
Trade Review"This second novel from Morales was given an Alejo Carpentier Award and features a story about a writer who visits the seven libraries of the world — leaving a new book in each of them. Both Bryerman and Dopico say Morales is an up-and-coming Cuban writer who should definitely be on any bookworm’s radar." * OZY *
