Memories of my melancholy whores

As with María dos Prazeres in Strange Pilgrims, the protagonist, an old man, finds love at the end of his life, when he only waits for death. This is the story of a relationship of love and sex between an aging journalist and a working-class child, who sells her virginity to help her family.
