«Los misterios de Madrid» is the detective novel by Antonio Muñoz Molina, published by Seix Barral in 1992 in paperback (189 pages, in Spanish).
In the Madrid of the nineties, the vocational journalist Lorenzo Quesada follows the trail of the missing Santo Cristo de la Greña. His detective adventure, laden with irony, turns him into a modern Candide in a city as precise as it is ghostly.
It belongs to the Biblioteca Breve collection from Seix Barral. The protagonist, Lorencito Quesada, already appeared in «El jinete polaco», and the action begins in Mágina, the fictional town of that novel.
For readers of contemporary Spanish fiction who enjoy detective plots and irony.
Antonio Muñoz Molina is a Spanish writer, a full member of the Royal Spanish Academy since 8 June 1995. He received the 1991 Premio Planeta, the 2013 Jerusalem Prize, and the 2013 Prince of Asturias Award for literature.
