A philosophical and experimental novel exploring power, violence and memory. Considered one of his early major works and frequently cited among notable contemporary Western literature.
A story themed around modernity and machinic forces; an allegorical work where characters and devices intersect.
The Neighbourhood series consists of short fragments that probe the boundary between logic and madness, everyday life and the absurd.
Using the motif of a voyage to explore history, memory and human relationships; noted as a work likely to endure.
Gonçalo M. Tavares is one of the leading figures of contemporary Portuguese literature since the 2000s. His poetic yet austere fragmentary style and genre-crossing oeuvre have earned international recognition. Jerusalem is included in the European edition of 1001 Books to Read Before You Die.
José Saramago stated: "In thirty years' time, if not before, Tavares will win the Nobel Prize, and I'm sure my prediction will come true... Tavares has no right to be writing so well at the age of 35. One feels like punching him."
