In the sweltering summer of 1938, with Lisbon in the grip of Portugal's dictatorship of Antonio Salazar, a journalist is coming to terms with the rise of fascism around him and its insidious impact on his work. Consumed by the passing of his wife and the child he never had, Pereira lives a quiet and lonely existence. One day, the young and charismatic Monteiro Rossi enters his life, changing everything. A man who once shied away from criticizing Portugal's authoritarian regime finds himself unable to stay quiet any longer, resulting in his political awakening and a devastating act of rebellion. Tabucchi's celebrated masterpiece is an ode to courage and solidarity in the face of political oppression.

A private meeting, chance encounters and a mysterious tour of Lisbon haunt this moving homage to Tabucchi's adopted city In the city of Lisbon, Requiem's narrator has an appointment to meet someone on a quay by the Tagus at twelve. Misunderstanding twelve to mean noon as opposed to midnight, he is left to wait. As the day unfolds he has many unexpected encounters - with a young drug addict, a disorientated taxi driver, a cemetery keeper, the mysterious Isabel and the ghost of the late great poet Fernando Pessoa - each meeting travelling between the real and illusionary. Part travelogue, part autobiography, part fiction, Requiem becomes an homage to a country and its people, and a farewell to the past as the narrator lays claim to a literary forebear who, like himself, is an evasive and many-sided personality.

Come definire una storia come questa? A prima vista potrebbe sembrare un romanzo fantastico, ma forse sfugge a ogni possibile definizione. Tabucchi l'ha sottotitolato "Un mandala", ma a ben vedere, con criteri tutti occidentali, si tratta in fin dei conti di un'inchiesta, una ricerca che sembra condotta da un Philip Marlowe metafisico. Ma con la metafisica, in questa ricerca spasmodica e pellegrina, si sposa un concetto tutto terrestre della vita: sapori, odori, luoghi, citta, fotografie che sono legati al nostro immaginario, ai nostri sogni, ma anche alla nostra quotidiana esperienza. E allora? Nella sua nota Tabucchi suggerisce di pensare a un monaco vestito di rosso, a Holderlin e a una canzone napoletana. Potranno forse sembrare degli ingredienti incongrui. Ma forse e meglio non cercare la congruenza in uno dei piu stravaganti, visionari e insieme struggenti romanzi che la letteratura italiana ci abbia mai regalato. Il romanzo postumo del grande scrittore.

The short story collection that launched Tabucchi to fame, reflecting on the uncertainties, memories, mistakes and mysteries of life Eleven short stories pivoting on life's ambiguities and the central question they pose in Tabucchi's fiction: is it choice, fate, accident, or even, occasionally, a kind of magic that plays a decisive role in the protagonists' lives? Set in Paris, Lisbon, Madras and New York and blended with the author's wonderfully intelligent imagination, Tabucchi reflects on the elemental aspects of the human experience, exploring grief, uncertainty, adventure, memory and love.

Wenn Regentropfen gegen die Scheiben prasseln, der Wind in den Baumen heult, der Frost klirrt, sollte man schnellstens eine Kanne Tee aufbruhen, sich einen bequemen Sessel mit vielen Kissen suchen, die Leselampe einschalten und ... lesen.

So bekannte und beliebte Autoren wie F. Scott Fitzgerald, Bernhard Schlink, Antonio Tabucchi oder Judith Hermann sorgen dafur, dass Sie beim Lesen nicht im Regen stehen bleiben, vom Winde verweht werden oder in eine Schneewehe geraten.
