A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

"An irresistible blend of shrewd detail and lyrical fantasy... A seductive novel that needs to be savoured" (Helen Dunmore Observer)

"An invitation to one of the richest bodies of work by a living writer" (Amanda Hopkinson New Statesman)

"Jose Saramago's brilliant evocation...is magical realism of a sort that stirs real wonder" (James Park Time Out)

"Saramago's lovely and original questing story, in a lineage of others such as Don Quixote and Kipling's Kim, is a journey of the spirit told as a journey of the feet" (Richard Eder Los Angeles Times)

"Tremendous wit is always apparent in his imaginative conceits, comic digression and verbal and narrative games" (Ian Critchley Sunday Times)
