The Book of Mirrors by Eo Chirovici
Princeton, 1987: renowned psychologist Professor Joseph Weider is brutally murdered. New York, twenty-five years later: literary agent Peter Katz receives a manuscript. Or is it a confession?THE ONE BOOK YOU WON’T FORGET IN 2017
A gripping psychological thriller full of hidden fragments and dark reflections
How would you piece together a murder?
Do you trust other people’s memories?
Do you trust your own?
Should you?
Intelligent and sophisticated - a crime story told the way Picasso painted pictures. Highly recommended. * Lee Child *
Magical in its storytelling, the novel lingers in the memory long after an immensely satisfying denouement * Daily Mail *
entirely compelling * Guardian *
I loved this twisty mind game! The Book Of Mirrors starts with a secret manuscript about a cold-case murder and then uses a host of characters and perspectives to make you look in every direction but at the truth. Who is lying? Is anyone's recall perfect? This isn't just a very clever thriller - it leaves us wondering how much we subconsciously manipulate our own memories to protect ourselves. * Julia Heaberlin (bestselling author of Black Eyed Susans) *
Inspired by false memories from his childhood and written in the author’s second language, remarkably The Book of Mirrors nearly wasn’t published at all.
Having been rejected in the US, E. O. Chirovici took the novel to a small UK publisher who advised him to try just one more time to get it to a wider readership. He did, and The Book of Mirrors was immediately signed by a literary agent, sparking a UK auction and world-wide rights sales.
E. O. Chirovici now lives in Brussels with his wife. He has had a prestigious and varied career in the Romanian media and has also published novels and short stories in his native language. The Book of Mirrors is his first novel in English and is being published in January.
