«No dia seguinte ninguém morreu». Que a morte tem as suas extravagancias, já todos nós sabíamos. Mas que se cansasse de exercer a sua principal actividade, nunca nos passou pela cabeça! Imagine que, de um momento para o outro, num certo país, as pessoas deixam de morrer. Estarão os líderes e os habitantes desse país preparados para gerir a vida eterna e as suas consequências? Colocada a hipótese, o autor desenvolve-a em todas as suas vertentes, e o leitor é conduzido com mão de mestre numa ampla divagação sobre a vida, a morte, o amor, e o sentido, ou a falta dele, da nossa existência.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Budapest'
Not just one of Brazil's most influential and beloved composers and musicians, Chico Buarque has won high praise as a poet, playwright, and novelist. Now with Budapest, his third novel, he offers a darkly comic social satire and a transcontinental love story of sex, violence, and comedy. Brazilian ghostwriter Jose Costa has just attended the Anonymous Writers Congress in Istanbul and is on his way back to Rio when a technical problem with his Lufthansa flight forces him to spend a night in Budapest. Fascinated by the Hungarian language, he falls under the sway of Kriska, an apparent teacher of the language. After misadventures in Hungary that include a round of Russian roulette with a couple of gypsies, he returns to Rio to find that his wife has vanished and the entire country is reading a book that he ghostwrote. Has his wife run off with the author? Costa manages to forget Copacabana and the samba in order to immerse himself in the Hungarian language and nights in Budapest. Chico Buarque's novel coils around the reader like a magical snake from the Arabian Nights-and recalls Borges and Calvino in its literary playfulness. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Du Cote De Chez Swann'
L'expression roman fleuve devrait, sans connotation péjorative, désigner une Suvre qui prend le temps de charrier mille petites particules d'impression pour les infuser dans l'esprit d'un lecteur captivé. En somme, elle devrait avoir été créée pour désigner La Recherche proustienne, qui s'ouvre Du côté de chez Swann et s'achève une fois Le Temps retrouvé.
Dans le premier tome de ce superbe travail sur la mémoire et la métaphore, Suvre à part entière mais aussi amorce dramatique d'un joyau de la langue française, le narrateur s'aperçoit fortuitement, à l'occasion d'un goûter composé d'une tasse de thé et d'une madeleine désormais célèbre, que les sens ont la faculté de faire ressurgir le souvenir. Grâce aux senteurs d'un buisson d'aubépines, il prend confusément conscience de la distinction entre le souvenir et la réminiscence, pour ensuite s'exercer à manier les mots comme de petits papiers japonais qui, touchés par la grâce de l'eau, se déploient en corolle pour faire place à tout un univers. Tout comme se déploie un roman fleuve à partir de cette toute petite phrase légendaire : "Longtemps, je me suis couché de bonne heure". --Sana Tang-Léopold Wauters [via]

Saramago tells the story of a history professor that, by chance, discovers in a rented movie a man identical to him, and decides to go in search of him. This novel poses the essential questions of life and the search of ones own identity: What defines us as unique people? Can we assume that our voice, our characteristics, or even the smallest distinctive mark are not repeated in another person? In this book, Saramago once again explores the depths of the soul. [via]

One of the greatest novels of Brazilian Literature, Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas is narrated by a dead man who recounts the amorous misadventures of his unheroic life and explains his half-hearted political ambitions. While it is considered the first novel of Brazilian realism, its quirks seem refreshingly modern and make it unforgettably unlike anything written before or after it. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Swann's Way Of Remembrance Of Things Past'
Swann's Way begins with one of the most famous incidents in all of literature -- the taste of a madeleine and tea that reawakens the elusive childhood memories of the narrator, Marcel. An image of Charles Swann, a wealthy and fashionable neighbor, precipitates Marcel's recollection of Swann's marriage to Odette de Crecy, a beautiful, manipulative woman far beneath him in social standing, and of the jealousy, aroused by Odette's many affairs with both men and women, that eventually destroys Swarm. Marcel recounts, too, his own initiation into the aesthetic pleasures and sexual intrigues of belle-epoque Paris. The themes introduced in Swann's Way -- the destructive force of obsessive love, the allure and the consequences of transgressive sex, and the selective eye that shapes memories -- form the threads that unite all the volumes of Remembrance of Things Past.

Una pequeña alfarería, un centro comercial gigantesco. Un mundo en rápido proceso de extinción, otro que crece y se multiplica como un juego de espejos donde no parece haber límites para la ilusión engañosa. Todos los días se extinguen especies animales y vegetales, todos los días hay profesiones que se tornan inútiles, idiomas que dejan de tener personas que los hablen, tradiciones que pierden sentido, sentimientos que se convierten en sus contrarios. Una familia de alfareros comprende que ha dejado de serle necesaria al mundo. Como una serpiente que muda de piel para poder crecer en otra que más adelante también se volverá pequeña, el centro comercial dice a la alfarería: «Muere, ya no necesito de ti». La caverna, una novela para cruzar el milenio. Con las dos novelas anteriores ¿Ensayo sobre la ceguera y Todos los nombres¿este nuevo libro forma un tríptico en que el autor deja escrita su visión del mundo actual. José Saramago (Azinhaga, 1922) es uno de los novelistas portugueses más conocidos y apreciados en el mundo entero. Desde 1993 vive en Lanzarote. En 1998 recibió el Premio Nobel de Literatura. [via]

What would happen if an entire population decided to cast a blank vote in their town elections? In this new novel, a policeman and the woman who was able to maintain her sight in the novel Blindness, are samples of the moral heights that these anonymous citizens are able to reach when they decide to exert their freedom. Saramago, a writer who has become the awakening conscience of a time blinded by the mechanisms of power, sends out an alert: "There may be a day when we will have to ask, Who has signed this in my name?" That day may very well be today.
Description in Spanish: Durante las elecciones municipales de una ciudad sin nombre, la mayoría de sus habitantes decide individualmente ejercer su derecho al voto de una manera inesperada. El gobierno teme que ese gesto revolucionario, capaz de socavar los cimientos de una democracia degenerada, sea producto de una conjura anarquista internacional o de grupos extremistas desconocidos. Las cloacas del poder se ponen en marcha: los culpables tienen que ser eliminados. Y si no se hallan, se inventan.
Con esta obra Saramago, un escritor que se ha convertido en la conciencia lúcida de una época cegada por los mecanismos del poder, lanza una llamada de alerta: «Puede suceder que un día tengamos que preguntarnos Quién ha firmado esto por mí». Ese día puede ser hoy. [via]

People search for ways to trick death into killing; the elderly are seen with the hatred reserved only for that which we cannot alter.

B&R Samizdat Express edition with active table of contents
The second volume of Proust's masterpiece, in the original French. According to Wikipedia: "Valentin Louis Georges Eugène Marcel Proust (10 July 1871 18 November 1922) was a French novelist, essayist, and critic, best known as the author of À la recherche du temps perdu (in English, In Search of Lost Time; earlier translated as Remembrance of Things Past), a monumental work of twentieth-century fiction published in seven parts from 1913 to 1927... Begun in 1909, À la recherche du temps perdu consists of seven volumes spanning some 3,200 pages and teeming with more than 2,000 literary characters. Graham Greene called Proust the "greatest novelist of the 20th century", and W. Somerset Maugham called the novel the "greatest fiction to date." Proust died before he was able to complete his revision of the drafts and proofs of the final volumes, the last three of which were published posthumously and edited by his brother, Robert." [via]
