... - the first with a mysterious Portuguese woman, and the second with a bookthat he discovers in a dusty corner of an old bookshop, which contains the thoughts of an enigmatic Portuguese artistocrat. With the book as his talisman, Gregorius boards the night train to Lisbon on a journey to find out more about it's author, Amadeu de Prado : who was the man whose words both haunt and compel him?

Pascal Mercier was born in 1944 in Bern, Switzerland, and currently lives in Berlin where he is a professor of philosophy.
