In Search of Klingsor by Jorge Volpi

Already an international bestseller, In Search of Klingsor traces an American physicists thrilling search to unmask Hitlers chief science advisor, the man whose work on the German atomic bomb threatened Allied security.

‘Jorge Volpi will be one of the stars of Spanish literature of this century’ Carlos Fuentes

‘“In Search of Klingsor” is about Nazi nuclear scientists in World War II – imagine the mood and intellect of Borges somehow grown into a beautiful, dark, lively suspenseful novel – which is becoming an international hit.’ Francisco Goldman

‘Broad in scope and supremely ambitious, this novel by Mexican writer Volpi succeeds at several levels. Volpi offers a poignant, powerful reminder of the potential and the peril involved when we harness the forces of nature.’ Publishers’ Weekly (Starred review)

An author, scholar and diplomat, Jorge Volpi has a BA in Law and a Master’s in Mexican Literature. He is the author of nine novels and collections and is currently the cultural attaché and director of the Mexican Culture Institute in Paris.
