Book description
Night Train to Lisbon follows Raimund Gregorius, a 57-year-old
Classics scholar, on a journey that takes him across Europe.
Abandoning his job and his life and travelling with a dusty old book
as his talisman, he heads for Lisbon in search of clues to the life of
the book's Portuguese author, Amadeu de Prado. As he gets swept up in
his quest, he finds that the journey is also one of self-discovery, as
he reencounters all the decisions he has made - and not made - in his
life, and faces the roads not travelled.
