«La herida de la esfinge» is the mystery novel by Terenci Moix, published by RBA in hardback (190 pages, in Spanish).
Described by the author as a «capriccio romántico», it narrates the arrival of an English aristocrat in Cairo in 1881 with an opera singer; both love the same woman and see Egypt from opposing perspectives. The miracle of the Sphinx at Giza unleashes an intrigue, and a journey along the Nile confronts the protagonist with his identity and his past.
«La herida de la esfinge» is the third instalment of the «Sueños egipcios» series; the novel appeared in 1994 in the «Narrativa actual» collection (no. 96).
Terenci Moix was a Spanish writer, who wrote in the Spanish and in Catalan languages. He was the brother of poet/novelist Ana Maria Moix.
