Your Face Tomorrow, Volume 3: Poison, Shadow and Farewell

`Your Face Tomorrow is already being compared with Proust and rightly so` Observer`One of contemporary literature`s major works … you have to open this book` Ali SmithThe concluding part in Javier Marias` spy trilogy masterwork Jacques Deza is back in London and once again working for the secret intelligence agency run by Bertram Tupra. Deza finds himself forced to watch Tupra`s collection of incriminating videotapes of important public figures. The recordings document unconventional private lives – and horrific acts. The scenes enter him like a poison, contaminating everything good, yet he is powerless to counteract them. Set against a background of brutality, Poison, Shadow and Farewell asks whether violence can ever be justified and completes the extraordinary journey that has led us on a descent into hell and a re-emergence, not entirely unscathed, into life.
