NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “Fifteen years after The Life of Pi,
Yann Martel is taking us on another long journey. Fans of his Man
Booker Prize–winning novel will recognize familiar themes from that
seafaring phenomenon, but the itinerary in this imaginative new book is
entirely fresh. . . . Martel’s writing has never been more
charming.”—Ron Charles, The Washington Post
In Lisbon in 1904, a young man named Tomás 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.
Thirty-five years later, a Portuguese pathologist devoted to the murder mysteries of Agatha Christie finds himself at the center of a mystery of his own and drawn into the consequences of Tomás’s quest.
Fifty years on, a Canadian senator takes refuge in his ancestral village in northern Portugal, grieving the loss of his beloved wife. But he arrives with an unusual companion: a chimpanzee. And there the century-old quest will come to an unexpected conclusion.
