the Anibaleitor

A young man who, having run away from the "guardians of the kingdom", embarks on a journey in search of a mythical and fabulous animal, the Anibaleitor. An adventure book for reading. At the same time, entertaining, educational, moving and, as always, stimulating.

We read it in one breath.

Rui Zink, born in Lisbon in 1961, is one of the most unique voices in contemporary Portuguese literature. Writer, teacher and intellectual provocateur, he has built a body of work marked by irony, social criticism and the rare ability to transform the everyday into revealing absurdity.

In books such as O Destino Turístico, A Instalação do medo or Hotel Lusitano, he explores the tension between fantasy and reality: humour as a sharp form of thinking.
