Product description
In he participated in the abduction of an orphan girl to marry her to his son Nuno , with whom he had a hard relationship and whom he expelled from home , during a time when his sight was getting even worse.

Been wanting to finish this one for quite some time. I had tried to read it before, but I always got stuck in the first few chapters. Now I know it really isn't my fault because the book starts with a whole lot of establishing who the main character is, how he behaves, looks and feels about the world, and in particular, politics.
I won't reveal too much, but I'll say this: It's a very cutting novel, digging into the worst of our political class - and it is, unfortunately, not dated in the slightest. I read that this book is quite different from what we would expect of Castelo Branco, since he's mainly known for his novels. Also, it has many funny moments, especially when Calisto is just settling in his Lisbon quarters.
In one of them, for example, he was feeling a bit under the weather, so he decided to follow the advice of one of his "classics" and drink the reinvigorating water from a fountain in Lisbon. It just so happens that after drinking that water, he felt even worse, which made him look at the book again and see that the cure for an upset stomach which was caused by the same, possibly polluted water he drank was drinking some more of that water.
That chapter ends with the narrator informing us that from then on, he only drank wine. Also, the book ends on a slightly unexpected note, but that just added to its value as one of the great portuguese classics.
