The title novella, long acclaimed as one of Couto's best works but never before made available in English, caps this collection with the lyrical story of a search for a lost father that leads to unexpected love."--Provided by publisher. 546 $a Translated from the Portuguese. 650 0 $a Short stories. 650 0 $a Portuguese fiction $v Translations into English. 700 1 $a Brookshaw, David, $e translator. 700 1 $a Becker, Eric M.
