José Saramago
José Saramago (1922–2010) has died at the age of 87. A committed communist and renowned for his novels such as Blindness, Seeing and The Gospel According to Jesus Christ, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1998 – you can read his Nobel lecture here. Verso was proud to publish The Notebook this year, which records his thoughts on life, literature and contemporary politics.
