Review this product
  • Another nice work by the author. It is the second one I read after "On Blindness". Surely, some may find it difficult to use only periods and commas as punctuation marks, but the writing style and the allegory are truly on another level.

Description & Specifications

If in Blindness blindness was universal, and in Seeing enlightenment was widespread, in Saramago's new novel, death operates intermittently in a small country of 10 million inhabitants, bringing despair, after the initial euphoria, to insurance companies, funeral contractors, nursing homes, hospitals, the church, the government, and families.

The mafia (spelled with a double 'f' as the author prefers) will take on the task of providing solutions, but death will counterattack in the form of a mysterious and enchanting woman...

The most recent and profoundly human novel by the great Nobel Prize-winning author.
