A São Paulo therapist sees a young man, and feels the sessions come to a solid conclusion before his patient moves to New York; but when the young man is murdered, and another life is revealed, it sends the therapist on a voyage of self-discovery in Sergio Y by Alexandre Vidal Porto.
Sergio Y is a slender, philosophical slice of life which paints gentle portraits of several people in transition. Despite the framing device of a murder, the novel largely functions as a character study, and of family and relationship dynamics.
Although the novel seems a slight read at the outset, some of the ideas and images resonate.
I checked this out from the Morrisson-Reeves Public Library in Richmond, Indiana and read it quickly.
