Description
Alissa Snowden has always felt that she was born in the wrong era. She loves history and reading, and is happy to work as a librarian at the Royal Library in London. Her peaceful life among the pages ends when a mysterious man in a dark frock coat appears between the shelves and offers her a position in the most beautiful library in the world. Even more surprising is the discovery that this library appears on no map and can be reached through Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. Alissa suspects that the real reason they want to employ her is her unusual ability connected with books. Her return awakens memories in which the teacher Hypatia, Erich Kästner and the controversial writer Colette appear. What does Alissa have to do with the mysterious disappearance of books, and why does the chief librarian hate her so much? This Czech-language novel takes readers into a magical literary world where books and their creators come to life again and again.
