«Livro» is the novel by José Luís Peixoto, published by Livros Quetzal in paperback (263 pages, in Portuguese).
The narrative moves between a village in the interior of Portugal and Paris to tell the story of Portuguese emigration to France through several intertwined lives. It alternates popular culture with echoes of great literature and portrays the power of dreams alongside the harshness—ironic, tender or grotesque—of reality, up to an unexpected ending.
The work belongs to the Língua comum collection, and this edition is the third, published in 2010.
