La compañía de la seda es una novela histórica escrita por David Liss y publicada en 2007. La historia se desarrolla en Londres en 1722, en la época de apogeo del mercado de importación de seda y especias. El protagonista, Benjamin Weaver, un judío de extracción humilde, ex boxeador y cazarrecompensas, se ve envuelto en una trama de corrupción, espionaje y competencia desleal al investigar para un excéntrico millonario. La novela sumerge al lector en los oscuros intereses económicos y comerciales de la época.
David Liss is an American writer of novels, essays and short fiction; more recently working also in comic books. He was born in New Jersey and grew up in South Florida. Liss received his BA degree from Syracuse University, an MA from Georgia State University and his M. Phil from Columbia University. He left his post-graduate studies of 18th Century British literature and unfinished dissertation to write full-time. "If things had not worked out with fiction, I probably would have kept to my graduate school career track and sought a job as a literature professor," he said. A full-time writer since 2010, Liss lives in San Antonio, Texas, with his wife and children.
