Perfect Days
Téo is a solitary medical student who divides his time between caring for his paraplegic mother and dissecting cadavers. At a party, he meets Clarice, a free-spirited and creative young woman who is writing a screenplay for a road movie.
Fascinated, Téo turns his obsession with her into a kidnapping and forces her to live out the journey of her own screenplay, moving between idyllic and claustrophobic settings. With chilling logic and a disturbing sense of order, he imposes an unusual routine on her, while Clarice wavers between resistance and resignation. The result is a dark romance, driven by tension and twists, that establishes Montes as one of the masters of the psychological thriller.
The prodigious Brazilian author Raphael Montes, who surprised everyone with his debut Suicidas at the age of 20—published by Cultura, as were Jantar Secreto and Uma Família Feliz—returned at 23 with Dias Perfeitos, a second book that would become one of the most iconic works of his literary career and an essential landmark in contemporary crime fiction.
