The reader will find in these pages various stories. A wandering former secret agent who spied on Bertolt Brecht. Stories that feature the appearance of losers who never give up, travelers without direction, storytellers. Many of the stories are philosophical; some are cosmopolitan. / El lector se topará en estas páginas con una Toscana secreta y embrujada, con las calles de Lisboa, Estambul, Varsovia y Bucarest, con un tren que hace el recorrido entre Bombay y Madrás, con un Berlín por el que deambula un ex agente secreto que espió a Bertolt Brecht y con las historias de ballenas y balleneros de las Azores que configuran Dama de Porto Pim. Y aparecen perdedores que nunca se dan por derrotados, viajeros sin rumbo, contadores de historias, personajes sacados de El gran Gatsby e incluso algún fantasma. Todos ellos protagonistas de unos cuentos cosmopolitas y filosóficos, que condensan todas las virtudes –elegancia, sutileza, capacidad evocadora, profundidad– de ese escritor portentoso que fue Antonio Tabucchi.
