PERFUME: THE STORY OF A MURDERER
by Patrick Suskind
Translated from German by John E. Woods
It is a story of murder and
obsession set in 18th-century France. Jean-Baptiste Grenouille has used his
unique talent for discerning the scents and smells that swirl around him to
create the world's finest perfumes, but his talent masks his burden. As he
becomes increasingly – and recklessly – passionate about his art, his obsession
to create the world's most powerful fragrance takes a deadly turn.
