Enrique de Hériz studied Hispanic Philology at the University of Barcelona and began at a very young age to develop a notable editorial career as a translator and editor. In the year 2000 he left his position as editorial director of Ediciones B to dedicate himself exclusively to his vocation: writing. His four novels are the result of long periods of reflection and research, and have established him as one of the most widely read and critically praised Spanish writers in recent years.
