«"What is understood in this book as essential in José Saramago corresponds to his specific identity as a writer, with the singularity and properties that differentiate him, in his foundations and manifestations. But that is not all. In the author of Memorial do Convento, a condition of citizen and political man is also affirmed, reflecting on his time and the social and cultural phenomena that shape it. For what matters here, this is equally essential in Saramago, especially since that condition of citizen is not foreign to the literary works with which it interacts, in very expressive terms."»
