*Poison, Shadow, and Farewell*, with its heightened tensions between meditations and noir narrative, with its wit and and ever deeper forays into the mysteries of consciousness, brings to a stunning finale Marías’s three-part *Your Face Tomorrow*. Already this novel has been acclaimed “exquisite“ (*Publishers Weekly*), “gorgeous” (*Kirkus*), and “outstanding: another work of urgent originality” (*London Independent)*. *Poison, Shadow, and Farewell* takes our hero Jaime Deza—hired by MI6 as a person of extraordinarily sophisticated powers of perception—back to Madrid to both spy on and try to protect his own family, and into new depths of love and loss, with a fluency on the subject of death that could make a stone weep.
