In the 1930s, Kay Fischer is a modernist architect. When she is approached by a stranger claiming to be her father, she is uncertain how to react. But as he pursues her, she finds herself drawn to him and when he asks her to accompany him on a mysterious pilgrimage to Lisbon, she accepts.

Yay! Books in the mail! And with such interesting postage stamps, too - they'll do nicely to fulfill some holiday wishlist wishes :)
Looking foreward to reading this one.

A worthwhile aquaintance, this. I hope the next reader appreciates the sacrifice I'm making in not adding it to my permanent collection ;)

Picked it up from ragsrobin's shelf. Looks interesting.
I really enjoyed this one! William Boyd is a very good author, and I really got into his story. To be recommended.

Received this at the BC meetup in Trondheim today. Will be read later.
Indeed a very entertaining story. I thought the jump in time seemed strange at first, but it made sense when strings began to appear. I enjoyed it. It had several elements that fits nicely together as moodsetters.
Given to Stein on the train between Steinkjer and Trondheim.
