About the author

José de Sousa Saramago (16 November 1922 – 18 June 2010) was a Portuguese novelist and recipient of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Literature, for his "parables sustained by imagination, compassion and irony [with which he] continually enables us once again to apprehend an elusory reality." His works, some of which have been seen as allegories, commonly present subversive perspectives on historic events, emphasizing the theopoetic. In 2003 Harold Bloom described Saramago as "the most gifted novelist alive in the world today."

Reviews

[Kelly García · Rating 5 out of 5]

"Hay un momento que es verdaderamente extraordinario en la lectura: cuando uno la interrumpe. Cuando uno está leyendo tiene el libro con las hojas abiertas, pero de pronto levanta la vista del libro y mira adelante. Se suspende la lectura, algo ha ocurrido, algo mágico: es como si la lectura quisiera transportar al lector a otro universo. Y es que el lector, al levantar la mirada, se está mirando a sí mismo. Eso es lo que ocurre en la relación entre el lector y el libro, es el estado de gracia que propicia la lectura"
