Join us for a discussion of The High Mountains of Portugal by Yann Martel In Lisbon in 1904, a young man named Tomas discovers an old journal. It hints at the existence of an extraordinary artifact that – if he can find it – would redefine history. Traveling in one of Europe’s earliest automobiles, he sets out in search of this strange treasure. Part quest, part ghost story, part contemporary fable – offers a haunting exploration of great love and great loss. Filled with tenderness, humor, and endless surprise, it takes the reader on a road trip through Portugal in the last century – and through the human soul.
