ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A novel about the dangerous power of storytelling.

An unstoppable literary phenomenon with rights sold in eight countries even before it was published.

"We go out, tell stories, laugh, and uncork bottles of wine with whoever agrees to be our companion. And so, the days go by, until we see our reflection in others' eyes. The gaze of others is a mirror we shouldn't underestimate."

On a nighttime train journey between London and Edinburgh, a woman and two strangers pass the time by talking about their lives. One man recalls his ambiguous relationship with a young man who confided in him about his difficult childhood and its effect on his life. Not long after, the man wrote a novel that closely resembled this episode. Is it ethical to write about other people's private confessions? The protagonist of P rez-Carbonell's novel is fascinated by this question, which compels her to examine her own memories and find out what really happened between the two men.

Nothing Is More Illusive questions the stories we tell, the role of literature, and the fine line that separates reality from fiction while weaving an evolving narrative of betrayal, loss and guilt.
