These 13 books are treasures of the international literature, written by remarkable authors across roughly the same era who meet now, at Livraria Lello.

These are the 13 rare editions that join Livraria Lello’s assets and are published on its The Collection.

For Livraria Lello 13 is a lucky number! We opened our doors on 13^th January 1906 with a visionary and bold attitude which we kept for 114 years. Today, just as then, we maintain the books, the writers and their stories as our focus.
