Small memories: José Saramago

Posts of Aljamal Translation: Ahmed Abdul Latif Number of pages: 141 pages Small memories are the autobiography of Saramago, in which he only discusses the childhood period. They are the memories that passed through him and engraved their marks on his conscience, contributing to building the first building blocks of the little child's personality who later became one of the most important writers in the world. Saramago says about "Small Memories": "This book tells about the child I was as the best way to understand myself. And although some believe that the first years of our lives - the years of innocence - are a period we live through and forget, I believe the opposite completely."
