About this book

Pereira Maintains by Antonio Tabucchi. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781847675712.

Dr. Peirera, an editor at a second-rate Lisbon newspaper, wants nothing to do with European politics. Hes happy to translate 19th-century French stories. His closest confidante is a photograph of his late wife. All this changes when he meets Francesco Monteiro Rossi, an oddly charismatic young man. Pereira gives Rossi work, and continues to pay him, even after discovering that he is using the money to recruit for the anti-Franco International Brigade. PEREIRA MAINTAINS chronicles Pereiras ascent to consciousness, culminating in a devastating and reckless act of rebellion.
