“an incredible story of the Portuguese colony of São Tomé adn Príncipe off the African Coast at the end of the Monarchy. The sotry of a lonely, promiscuous aristocrat, appointed by the king to be governor of an even lonlier place, where he finds his destiny.

I was very impresed with the historical novel of well-painted characters, showing the decadence f the last days of European colonialsm in the world: spanning India and Africa. It is also a profound meditation on lonliness.”
“...great book , especially if you read it in the original language!”
