Twilight

"Twilight" by Dmitry Glukhovsky is our answer at once to both Dan Brown and Chuck Palahniuk. Proof of its status is one hundred thousand people who read the novel online. Earthquakes in Iran, hurricanes in the USA, tsunamis in Indonesia, drought and fires in Russia... Newspaper headlines and television news intertwine with the gloomy prophecies of the Mayan Indians. All these are links in one chain. These are omens that only the blind cannot see, but only one man will be able to decipher them. "Twilight" is the gripping story of that man. While translating into Russian an ancient diary of a Spanish conquistador, he finds himself drawn into a whirlpool of incredible events that will help him decode the prophecies and look into the future — perhaps at the cost of his own life. Skillfully disguised as a thriller, "Twilight" is something much greater. It is a metaphor-novel, a manifesto-novel. Once immersed in "Twilight," you will not be able to tear yourself away until the very last page. And having finished it, you will not be able to forget it.
The plot of the novel "Twilight" is based on a real historical document kept in the archives of the library of the Royal Institute of History in Madrid, Spain.
