would it be possible to get English subtitles for this?!!!

[janesatorres]

It would have been better if he delivered using English. How I wish I knew Portuguese.

[onepluseipi]

"Oh yes, I have a prize. They called Noble.

But at the end, it doesn't matter." This is

what Saramago said once in a interview.

and the best part is that he is a communist

[luftair]

the best part is he is portuguese although some ppl don't like him...unfortnatelly

[infiniteinmate]

Saramago is an amazing novelist. I'm currently reading Stone Raft and The Gospel according to Jesus Christ. He really knows how to get into the head of his reader. I want to learn portugues just so i can read all his work.

"Sim,tenho prémio nobel. E quê?É que no fundo,no fundo,tudo é pouco,tudo é insignificante" José Saramago.

Um génio!

[condemaltese]

[teohuerta07]

The Portuguese writer and prize Nobel of Literature José Saramago has abused after that the novel The intermittences of the death are a derivation or construction without the due consent of my story Last news! The novel of Saramago is a derived work but that it cannot be exploited without the authorization of the holder of the right of the work primigenia, in accordance with the Article 78 of the Federal Law of the royalty. To see saramago plagiario en blogspot.

I agree, he probably is the greatest living novelist, but that isn't saying very much.
