About the Author

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I like "Blindness" more than any other novel I have read in recent years. It is abstract, parabolic and at the same time emotional. A Nobel prize winner, Saramago died recently. He was Portugese but lived for man years in Spain, escaping the dictatorship of his country. His family was poor; he was a journalist who started writing fiction relatively late in his life and a Communist of the most humane sort. His writing is compelling, unforgettable, moving and consequential.
