«Pour toujours» is the novel by Vergílio Ferreira, French translation of «Para Sempre», published by 10/18 in paperback (347 pages, in French).
Paulo, on the brink of old age and death, returns forever to his childhood home, empty and desolate, inhabited only by ghosts of the past. Disillusioned, he observes the world and his own life with lucidity and nostalgia; the novel explores existence and the passage of time with a meditative, melancholic prose.

For readers of Portuguese narrative and existential fiction, with a protagonist who recalls his life at the end of his days.
