Perfume : the story of a murderer / Patrick S�uskind ; translated from the German by John E. Woods. - London : Penguin, 1987. - 263p. ; 20 cm.

This translation originally published: London: Hamish Hamilton, 1985.

Born in sweaty, fetid eighteenth-century Paris, Grenouille is distinctive even in infancy. He has the finest nose in Paris and no personal odour. S�uskind develops this idea into a tale of murder controlled by a loathing of humanity.
