Secrecy--its possible convenience, its price, and even its civility--hovers throughout the novel. \u003ci\u003eA Heart So White\u003c\/i\u003e becomes a sort of anti-detective story of human nature. Intrigue; the sins of the father; the fraudulent and the genuine; marriage and strange repetitions of violence: Marías elegantly sends shafts of inquisitory light into shadows and onto the costs of ambivalence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJAVIER MARÍAS was born in Madrid in 1951.
