JAVIER MARÍAS (b. 1951) is a celebrated Spanish novelist, translator, and columnist. His work has been translated into 42 languages, and his numerous literary awards include the 1997 Nelly Sachs Award; the Comunidad de Madrid award in 1998; the 2000 Grinzane Cavour Award, the Alberto Moravia Prize, and the Dublin IMPAC Award.
Early in his career, Marías spent several years translating English-language texts, including works by Thomas Browne, Laurence Sterne and Wallace Stevens. The digressive and meditative tendencies of these writers are evident in Marías’s later fiction, particularly in his three-volume masterpiece YOUR FACE TOMORROW (2002-07), which has been hailed as one of the great works of 21st century literature. This Proustian spy novel maintains a taut, suspenseful narrative over 1000+ pages, while continually illuminating and questioning the unreliability of narrative, the (im)possibilities of translation, the contingencies of historical record, and the division between reality and fiction.
These concerns are returned to throughout his oeuvre. DARK BACK OF TIME (1998), a semi-fictional memoir, takes as one of its subjects the critical misattributions of factual and fictional elements in an earlier novel, ALL SOULS (1989), that describes the activities of a Spanish lecturer at Oxford. The publication of the latter includes a biographical sketch of the English poet John Gawsworth, and led in 1997 to Marías being named the King of Redonda, an unpopulated island in the Antilles formerly "ruled" by Gawsworth. Perhaps the most revealing aspect of his reign is the annual conferral of duchies upon writers and artists Marías admires, which include John Ashbery (Duke of Convexo), A. S. Byatt (Duchess of Morpho Eugenia), Francis Ford Coppola (Duke of Megalópolis) and W. G. Sebald (Duke of Vértigo).
