| Description | Madrid, summer 1614. Ten years after the publication of the first part of “Don Quixote”, a sequel appears under the name of the mysterious Alonso Fernández de Avellaneda, published without Cervantes’s involvement. The furious publisher Francisco Robles instructs his employee Isidoro Montemayor to discover who is hiding behind the pseudonym and why the unknown author has chosen to attack Cervantes. Montemayor — a former manager of a gambling den, journalist, proofreader and perpetual aspirant to the status of hidalgo — proves an ideal detective for the task. His investigation leads him from Madrid’s most dubious establishments to literary salons and court circles. Gradually it becomes clear that dangerous accusations and intrigues of the Spanish Golden Age lie behind the literary deception. “The Ink Thieves” combines historical detective fiction, adventure novel and metafiction about the birth of modern literature, populated by both fictional characters and real writers of the period. |
