David Liss managed to fall in love with the Russian reader with his intellectual bestsellers “Conspiracy of Papers”, “Corruption Fair”, “The Devil’s Company”, “Coffee Merchant”. In his new novel, The Twelfth Curse, he successfully tries his hand at the genre of historical romance of the Regency period, forever associated with the name of Jane Austen, and famously mixes in elements of mysticism. So, meet Lucy Derrick. After the death of her beloved father, she is forced to huddle in the inhospitable house of her uncle, Mr. Lowell, endure his tyrannical manners and accept the advances of the elderly owner of a neighboring factory - a rare bore, always complaining about the excesses of the Luddite rebels. But everything changes when a ragged stranger appears on the threshold of the Lowell house, in whom Lucy is surprised to recognize the notorious Lord Byron. He brings her truly shocking news - and is clearly suffering from a spell cast by someone...For the first time in Russian.
