The package arrived on a Tuesday, which Ines Barreto would later note was the only ordinary thing about it. No return address. No stamp. It had been left with the concierge of her building on Rua da Boavista, a man named Agostinho who read other people's mail when the envelopes were thin and spent the afternoons arguing with a radio. He handed it to her at the door and said nothing, because he never said anything, and she took it upstairs without looking at it, because she had spent the morning on the phone with a bank and her mind was still there.
The bank had been polite in the way that institutions are polite when they are telling you that you are a number and the number is not good. She owed eleven thousand euros. She had owed eleven thousand euros for two years, and the number had not moved because the column paid enough to live and not enough to pay, and every month she told herself she would take the translation work, or the copywriting, or the teaching, and every month she did not, because the column was the only thing left that looked like a career and she was afraid that if she let go of it she would disappear. Her apartment was two rooms and a kitchen that had been a pantry in another century. The walls were the color of old teeth. From the window she could see the river, not the pretty part, the working part, the cranes that moved all night like slow animals. She put the package on the table and made coffee first. This was discipline. You do not open the mail hungry, you do not open it tired, you do not open it the way you open a wound

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
