Jose Saramago's The Notebook (review)

Jose Saramago's The Notebook (review)

Stuff White People Like by Christian Lander was a successful example of a blog that was turned into a book. Now Portuguese Nobel laureate Jose Saramago has done this too.

Jose Saramago is the author of Blindness and The Year of the Death of Ricardo Reis and many more books. He's been writing since 1947.

His latest is The Notebook, which is a collection from his blog on politics and the arts from September 2008 to August 2009.

For The Book Show, reviewer David Astle dipped into The Notebook.
