The Slackers: and other stories Tiago Manuel
This book, Slackers, is a collection of short stories, part of International Publisher's ongoing Manuel Tiago seriesThe title story, "The Slackers," deals humorously with a mixed bag of misfits who are forced to report to a military correctional camp to complete their obligatory service. For a time, in late 1939 and early 1940, Cunhal was forced to complete his military service in a Disciplinary Company. As in several of his other works of fiction, Tiago, (lvaro Cunhal), based his tale on his own life.
In this story the author once again calls upon his own memories, having served as a very young man as leader of the Federation of Portuguese Communist "Hand in Hand" is a teenage love story set against the background of the post-1974 public flowering of the Communist Party as a significant partner in the democratic reconstruction of the country.
