Synopsis
'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 Smith
'I am myself my own fever and pain'
Jacques Deza has been told he has a gift: he can see through people; guess just from their faces what will become of them. When he encounters the enigmatic Bertram Tupra at a party, Deza is persuaded to join a mysterious underground group. His task: to observe an assortment of people - politicians, celebrities, seemingly ordinary citizens - and predict their next move. But where will Deza's descent into this twilight world eventually take him? The first part of Javier Marias' masterly trilogy asks how well we truly know and understand those around us.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Volume one of Javier Marias's acclaimed and evocative 'novel in parts'Recently divorced, Jacques Deza moves from Madrid to London to start anew. At a party held by retired don, semi-retired spy and old friend Sir Peter Wheeler, he meets the inscrutable Bertram Tupra. Tupra is impressed by Deza's talent for seeing through people and enlists him in a mysterious group. His mission is to observe an assortment of people including politicians, celebrities and seemingly ordinary citizens with the aim of predicting their next move. Through Deza's descent into the dark world of observation, Marias sculpts a profound meditation on the foundations of human relationships and questions our ability to truly know and understand those around us.
