Description
The Land at the End of the World A Novel by António Lobo Antunes A haunting and anguished tale of a Portuguese medic haunted by memories of war, this novel is a kaleidoscopic vision of a modern Portugal scarred by its Fascist past and colonial wars in Africa. Translated by Margaret Jull Costa, it recounts a tragic and haunting story that unfolds like a fever dream. The result is a powerful and evocative war novel of the modern age, one that explores the devastating impact of conflict on individuals and society. With its unique and poetic prose, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in literary fiction and the human experience.
