Perfume

'Born in sweaty, fetid eighteenth-century Paris, Genouille 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.
