Hidden in the heart of the old city of Barcelona is the 'cemetery of lost books', a labyrinthine library of obscure and forgotten titles that have over out of print. To the library, a guy brings his 10-year-old son Daniel one cold morning in 1945. Daniel is allowed to choose one book from the shelves and pulls out 'La Sombra del Viento' by Julian Carax. But as he matures, several people seem inordinately considering his find. Then, one night, as he's wandering the old streets once again, Daniel is approached by a figure who reminds him of the character from La Sombra del Viento, a character who actually is the devil. This man is tracking down every last copy of Carax's work in order to burn them. What starts as an instance of literary curiosity becomes a race to learn the reality behind the life span and death of Julian Carax and also to save those he left out. A page-turning exploration of obsession in literature and love, and the places that obsession can lead.
