«Papel mojado» is the crime novel by Juan José Millás, published by Lectorum Pubns in hardback (215 pages, in Spanish).
A murder that seems like suicide and a culprit who doesn't seem like one serve Millás to explore the relationship between appearance and reality, and the conflict between what one is and what one wants to be. Humour, irony, parody and echoes of noir fiction combine with brilliant dialogues and surreal metaphors leading to a surprising, almost Borgesian ending.
It corresponds to number 33 of the Tus Libros collection and to the first edition in that collection. «Papel mojado» was originally published in 1983.
A suitable title for young readers and for adults interested in crime fiction and in twentieth-century Spanish literature.
Juan José Millás is a Spanish writer and winner of the 1990 Premio Nadal. He was born in Valencia and has spent most of his life in Madrid, where he studied philosophy and literature at the Universidad Complutense.
