“The Year of the Death of Ricardo Reis or the novel as a journey” takes part in the reporting referred in the general framework of the travel motif. e de Lisboa, em meados dos anos 30 do século XX. From Viagem a Portugal (1981) to A Viagem do Elefante (2008), including A Jangada de Pedra (1986), the journey constitutes a point of departure for questioning the return, identity, history, and the sites that were toured. In O Ano da Morte de Ricardo Reis, the journey leads to a rediscovering of urban spaces, of historical figures and of interpersonal experiences. Finally, the journey leads to other dimensions (symbolic, political, etc.), going far beyond wandering around the city of Lisbon, in the mid-1930s.
