En 'Sostiene Pereira', Antonio Tabucchi nos transporta a Lisboa en 1938, bajo la opresiva dictadura de Salazar y con la Guerra Civil Española como telón de fondo. Pereira, un periodista de sucesos, es nombrado director de la página cultural de un periódico local. Su encuentro con el joven Monteiro Rossi y su novia Marta desencadena una crisis personal que lo lleva a una dolorosa toma de conciencia y transformación. Esta novela es un retrato inolvidable de un hombre en busca de su identidad en tiempos de turbulencia política y social.

Antonio Tabucchi was an Italian writer and academic who taught Portuguese language and literature at the University of Siena, Italy. Deeply in love with Portugal, he was an expert, critic and translator of the works of Fernando Pessoa from whom he drew the conceptions of saudade, of fiction and of the heteronyms. Tabucchi was first introduced to Pessoa's works in the 1960s when attending the Sorbonne. He was so charmed that when he returned to Italy, he took an introductory course in Portuguese for a better comprehension of the poet.
