A Jangada de Pedra


In my last post of the day I will recommend you a book named A Jangada de Pedra, by José Saramago (Nobel prize of literature in 1998). The basic premise of the novel is that the Iberian Peninsula has broken off the European continent and is floating freely in the Atlantic Ocean; bureaucrats around the world are forced to deal with the traumatic effects, while five characters from across Portugal and Spain are drawn ever closer to one another, embarking on a journey within the peninsula as the landmass journeys itself.
