2004 novel by Pascal Mercier
This article is about the novel. For the 2013 film adaptation, see Night Train to Lisbon (film).
Night Train to Lisbon is a philosophical novel by Swiss writer Pascal Mercier. It recounts the travels of Swiss Classics instructor Raimund Gregorius as he explores the life of Amadeu de Prado, a Portuguese doctor, during António de Oliveira Salazar's right-wing dictatorship in Portugal. Prado is a serious thinker whose active mind becomes evident in a series of his notes collected and read by Gregorius.
The book was originally published in German as Nachtzug nach Lissabon in 2004 and was first published in English in 2008. The novel became an international bestseller.[1] Danish film director Bille August adapted the book into a 2013 film of the same name, starring Jeremy Irons as Raimund Gregorius.
The real night train from Hendaye (France) to Lisbon was stopped since the Covid pandemic after running for decades. All train connections from France to Portugal have been cancelled in 2022 due to the Spanish-French Railroad War.[2]
