He began a restless search throughout Lisbon, a search for another life, he was an unusual Physician and Poet, fighting against the Salazar Dictatorship. Here was a life full of experiences.This novel was written by a highly gifted writer and Philosopher.One reads this book almost breathlessly, unable to leave it down...... In the end as with Merciers Figures, as with leaving a good friend one parts extremely reluctantly.Balm for the soul, understanding and heartfelt. Through his lectures and readings they become more precious, a richly fulfilled lifetime. ISBN Nr 3-446-20555-1 page 496
