Description
This novel tells the story of Senhor Jose, a minor official in a registry office who becomes fascinated with a woman's file. She is dead, but he decides to reconstruct her life by tracing it backwards from death to birth.
As he delves deeper into his research, Jose begins to question whether he can bring this woman back to life through the power of information and memory.
This thought-provoking novel explores the human desire to understand our past and the nature of identity, raising questions about the relationship between data, memory, and the self.
