Description
Skylight is one of José Saramago's earliest novels, rediscovered after being lost in the publishers' offices for decades. First published in English, this novel brings together the lives of ordinary people living in Lisbon during the late 1940s. Their struggles and relationships are marked by poisonous ties, happy marriages, jealousy, gossip, and love. As they navigate their daily lives, Skylight explores the complexities of human connection and the joys and grief that come with it. A poignant portrayal of everyday life, Skylight is a thought-provoking novel that delves into the intricacies of human relationships and the power of ordinary people's stories.
