«El fin de Mr. Y» is the science fiction and fantasy novel by Scarlett Thomas, published by Ediciones Paidós in hardcover (448 pages, in Spanish).
Ariel Manto finds a copy of El fin de Mr. Y in a second-hand bookstore, a cursed book by Victorian writer Thomas Lumas. The book explains how to reach the tropopause, where consciousnesses connect and one can travel through time. Her thesis supervisor has disappeared and agents are pursuing her: love, death and secrets.
Volume 1 of the Alea collection. Spanish translation of «The End of Mr. Y», published in 2008.
Aimed at readers of contemporary fiction and science fiction with an interest in stories about books and time travel.
