Perfume (International Writers)

I read it long ago... Not an easy book to read, but very interesting!
"Born in sweaty, fetid eighteenth-century Paris, Grenouille is distinctive even in infancy. He has "the finest nose in Paris and no personal odour". With wit, a Gothic imagination and considerable originality, Suskind has developed this simple idea into a fantastic tale of murder and twisted eroticism controlled by a disgusted loathing of humanity... Clever, stylish, absorbing and well worth reading." -Literary Review.
