註釋

Jacinto was born and brought up in Paris and has never visited Portugal. He lives in a mansion crammed with books and with all the latest gadgets, for he believes that human happiness depends on a combination of erudition and the most sophisticated of mechanical aids. When he travels to his estate in Portugal, he discovers that none of the boxes and crates he has despatched from Paris have arrived. How will he survive without civilisation's essential comforts?
