Revolution of the land

Author's name: José Saramago Publisher: Al-Jamal Publications for Publishing and Distribution Year of publication: 2019 Literary classification: Novel Brief about the book: In the revolution of the land, we trace the footsteps of Saramago and enter in the light of his ferocity in truth and his anger from injustice and his unlimited pain from poverty to the village of "Lafry" through which he discusses the history of Portugal and the most important events it went through, including the "Carnation Revolution" that broke out in 1974. "Revolution of the Land" was published in 1980 and caused strong editions in cultural circles, and it was itself a revolution in narration at that time and contained the first signs of "Saramagian" writing... starting from a clear idea to see the world... microscopic analysis of its characters... the well-structured architecture of his novels... the satirical and noble style at the same time... poetic language... those signs that later clearly manifested in his subsequent works and earned him a special place in world literature.
