Requiem by Antonio Tabucchi
90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books
'My dear friend, he said, life is strange and strange things happen in life'
It is a hot July Sunday in Lisbon and our narrator has an appointment to meet someone by the quayside. But when his guest does not arrive, he spends the day wandering the deserted city, encountering some memorable characters along the way: a disoriented taxi driver, an accordionist, a Seller of Stories and, finally, the long-awaited ghost of the late, great Fernando Pessoa.
