Javier Cercas is one of the most enjoyable and innovative novelists at work today. Well known among English-language readers as the author of 'Soldiers of Salamis', 'The Anatomy of a Moment' and 'The Impostor', Cercas is also Professor of Spanish Literature at the University of Girona. In 2015, following in the footsteps of George Steiner, Mario Vargas Llosa and Umberto Eco, as Weidenfeld Visiting Professor in Comparative European Literature at St Anne's College, Oxford, Cercas gave a series of five lectures on the novel today, which have since been revised and are now published in English for the first time as 'The Blind Spot'.
