A man leaves home armed on a cold dawn. The novel weaves episodes around the 1974 Revolution to portray a Portuguese family marked by dictatorship, repression and the colonial war. Duarte, a precocious pianist, grows up immersed in others' secret memories; his art raises the question of whether it can redeem or open new conflicts.
