The high mountains of Portugal : a novel

Martel, Yann. (Author).

Summary: "In Lisbon in 1904, a young man named Tomás goes in search of an extraordinary artifact that - if found - would redefine history. Thirty-five years later, a Portuguese pathologist is immersed in a mystery that draws him into the consequences of Tomás's journey. Fifty years on, a Canadian senator takes refuge in his ancestral village in northern Portugal, grieving the loss of his wife. And there the century-old odyssey will come to an unexpected conclusion. Part quest, part ghost story, part contemporary fable, The High Mountains of Portugal is filled with tenderness, humor, and endless surprise, taking the reader on a road trip through the human soul."--Back cover.
