«Hotel La Solitude» in Paços de Ferreira

Returning to Paços de Ferreira is coming home.

My thanks to Professor José Neto for his generous words; to Clara Silva and the Parish Council for the care and attention with which they prepared this event; to Councillor Amância Santos and the Municipal Library for their support; and to Manuel Andrade and Sandra Barros for their help throughout.

My heartfelt gratitude to everyone who braved a cold, rainy night to join us and listen to a conversation about books.

I will carry the memory of this evening with great tenderness.
