«Memorias Laurentinas» is the novel by Agustina Bessa-Luís published by Guimarães in paperback (331 pages, in Portuguese).
Memories of the Lourenços: from a family diary, the narrative records customs and traditions of a region dear to the author, from the Douro to Porto, Castile and Africa. The episodes follow the current of history without being swept along by it, maintain distance and leave room for imagination, in a web of half-dreamed realities and a jovial, nostalgic read.
The edition, published in 2010, is part of the Opera Omnia collection and its cover presents it as a «romance».
A book for readers of Portuguese fiction interested in family memoirs and nostalgic, costumbrista portraiture.
