De este mundo y del otro - Las maletas del viajero / Of This World and the Next - The Travelers Luggage

Un volumen que reúne dos libros de artículos de José Saramago, escritos entre 1968 y 1972 para el diario A Capital y el semanario Jornal do Fundão.

Los dos libros agrupados en este volumen contienen artículos escritos con un lenguaje claro y directo, en los que se conjuga la reflexión, la observación y la crítica de temas muy diversos.

De este mundo y del otro es una serie de crónicas breves acerca de la vida cotidiana y sus misterios. En Las maletas del viajero, Saramago habla de su niñez, su familia, sus vivencias y los engaños de la política, así como de la vida de las ciudades, el arte y los museos.

En los dos casos, su prosa demuestra un fino humor y una ironía que invita a su lectura. El conjunto nos permite entrever a un escritor directo y cercano, que parece dialogar con sus lectores de viva voz.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A volume that compiles two collections of articles written by José Saramago between 1968 and 1972 for the journal A Capital and the weekly Jornal do Fundão.

Both books in this volume contain articles written with a clear and straight-forward language, in which reflectiveness, observation, and the review of several topics come together.

Of This World and the Next is a series of brief chronicles about everyday life and its mysteries. In The Traveler’s Luggage, Saramago speaks of his childhood, his family, his experiences, and political deceptions, as well as city life, art, and museums. In both cases, his prose expresses a fine humor and the kind of irony that invites one to keep on reading. Put together, the two works offer a glimpse at a close and forthright author, seemingly conversing with his readers in person.
