"Félix Ventura. Assegure aos seus filhos um passado melhor". É a partir deste cartão-de-visita que se desenrolam os capítulos de "O Vendedor de Passados", novo romance de José Eduardo Agualusa. A mentira e a verdade, o(s) homem(s) e o(s) seu(s) duplo(s), a memória e a memória da memória, a ficção e a realidade. Angola ("é importante ironizar com a sociedade angolana, que é uma sociedade que se construiu e se continua a construir assente em muitas ficções" - o autor ao Público, 19/06/04). Tudo poderia acontecer. Tudo poderia ter acontecido. (Susana Moreira Marques, Público, Mil Folhas: "A determinada altura a osga recorda a mãe num momento da sua vida passada: 'Nos livros está tudo o que existe, muitas vezes em cores mais autênticas, e sem a dor verídica de tudo o que realmente existe. Entre a vida e os livros, meu filho, escolhe os livros'(p. 122). José Eduardo Agualusa provavelmente escolhe a vida.") Isto é: os livros?

'O vendedor de passados' é a história de um albino que mora em Luanda, Angola, e faz árvores genealógicas em troca de dinheiro. Uma osga, um tipo de lagartixa, é que conta como o albino Félix fabrica uma genealogia de luxo para seus clientes - prósperos empresários, políticos e generais da emergente burguesia angolana que têm futuro assegurado, mas falta-lhes um bom passado. A vida de Félix anda muito bem, até receber a visita de um estrangeiro à procura de uma identidade angolana. E, então, numa vertigem, o passado irrompe pelo presente e o impossível começa a acontecer.

"Ingenious, consistently taut and witty" TLS Strange, elliptical, charming" Guardian Set in contemporary Angola, this novel is populated with characters whose victories never quite settle. Like any one of us, they can forget things that have happened to them, and remember things that never did. Theirs is a world where the truth seems to shift from moment to moment, where history itself is up for grabs. Agualusa's slippery narrator takes us on a vivid and enthralling journey across the shifting landscape of memory and history, and - from his unique perspective - reveals a breathtaking love story too. Translated from the Portuguese by Daniel Hahn WINNER OF THE INDEPENDENT FOREIGN FICTION PRIZE

'O vendedor de passados' é a história de um albino que mora em Luanda, Angola, e faz árvores genealógicas em troco de dinheiro. Estranho ofício, estranho o personagem principal - o vendedor de passados falsos, Félix Ventura - e mais estranho ainda o narrador - uma osga, um tipo de lagartixa. É ela que vai contar como o albino Félix fabrica uma genealogia de luxo para seus clientes - prósperos empresários, políticos e generais da emergente burguesia angolana que têm futuro assegurado, mas falta-lhes um bom passado.

E, então, numa vertigem, o passado irrompe pelo presente e o impossível começa a acontecer. Esta sátira à atual sociedade angolana é uma reflexão sobre a construção da memória e seus equívocos.

Shortlisted for the Man Booker International Prize A Portuguese woman shuts herself away after the Angolan War of Independence in this stunning novel from a master storyteller whose writing evokes Gabriel García Márquez and J.M. Coetzee. On the eve of Angolan independence, an agoraphobic woman named Ludo bricks herself into her Luandan apartment for 30 years, living off vegetables and the pigeons she lures in with diamonds, burning her furniture and books to stay alive, and writing her story on the apartment's walls. As the country goes through various political upheavals—from colony to socialist republic to civil war to peace and capitalism—the world outside seeps into Ludo’s life through snippets on the radio, voices from next door, glimpses of someone peeing on a balcony, or a man fleeing his pursuers. Almost as if we're eavesdropping, the history of Angola unfolds through the stories of those she sees from her window . . . A General Theory of Oblivion is a perfectly crafted, wild patchwork of a novel, playing on a love of storytelling and fable.

"Celebrated Angolan musician Faustino Manso has just died, leaving seven wives and eighteen children scattered across southern Africa. His youngest daughter, Laurentina, arrives in Angola from her home in Portugal to trace the story of the father she never knew." "My Father's Wives is the story of Laurentina's journey, but this fiction also runs in parallel with Jose Eduardo Agualusa's story of the novel's genesis, as writer and characters travel the southern African coast, from Angola, through Namibia and South Africa, to Mozambique, meeting extraordinary people and discovering Faustino's secrets along the way." "This novel heralds the rebirth of Africa, a continent afflicted by terrible problems but blessed with a talent for music, by the ever-renewed strength of its women and the secret power of ancient gods."--BOOK JACKET.

Félix Ventura es un personaje peculiar. Además de ser albino, ha escogido un extraño oficio: vendedor de pasados falsos. Después de años de guerra, sus clientes –prósperos empresarios, políticos, generales y la emergente burguesía angoleña– tienen un futuro prometedor. Así que sólo les falta un pasado presentable. Félix les fabrica una genealogía de lujo, memorias felices, e incluso les procura los inevitables retratos de ancestros ilustres. Una noche llega un misterioso extranjero solicitando sus servicios y, de pronto, el pasado irrumpe en el presente en una trama que es también una originalísima novela negra en la que nadie es lo que parece y empiezan a ocurrir hechos imposibles.Una sátira feroz, divertidísima, pero también esperanzada. Una novela que es también una reflexión sobre la construcción de la memoria y sus equívocos, acerca de cómo podemos recordar cosas que nunca sucedieron y olvidar, sin concesiones, lo sucedido. Una novela contada por un insólito narrador, irónico y extraordinariamente perceptivo, que haría las delicias del mismísimo Jorge Luis Borges.
