| | "José Saramago, one of the most critically acclaimed writers world-wide, was distinguished with the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1998. This honour, the first to be bestowed on a Portuguese language writer marked one of the high points in a long and multiple career. Largely an auto-didact, Saramago never let fame obscure his clear vision of the world, tempered by a lifelong acquaintance with severe inequality, political struggle, but also success, be it in terms of the 1974 revolution that freed Portugal from nearly fifty years of dictatorship, be it in the growing acclaim he received since deciding to focus on writing. The Nobel Prize provided Saramago with a wider, perhaps more effective, base for expressing his opinions; but it did not bring about a rupture, neither with his political convictions, nor with his writing. In the large bibliography on Saramago sustained critical studies in English are still relatively scarce. This volume, composed by many diverse voices, and the first to focus on Saramago's late works, strives to address that gap. As 2022 marks Saramago's centenary, this volume is dedicated especially to his enduring memory and to all the futures his works made possible to envision"-- |
