Le hermosa historia de quien pudo enfrentar la mano del Dios todo rencoroso.

A final novel by the late Nobel laureate author of Blindness is a bold reimagining of the Old Testament told through the story of Cain, who after being condemned to wander forever for murdering his brother journeys through time and space to witness key biblical events that impress upon him the unjust nature of God's edicts. 50,000 first printing.

I absolutely loved this book. Brilliantly written, a dark twist on the story of Cain and Abel. God is the villain. Is it technically blasphemous if some of these bible stories were nothing more than just that to begin with? Either way, a must read.

In a reimagining of the Old Testament, Cain, condemned to wander forever for murdering his brother, journeys through time and space to witness key biblical events that impress upon him the unjust nature of God's edicts.

After killing his brother Abel, Cain must wander for ever. He witnesses Noah's ark, the destruction of the Tower of Babel, Moses and the golden calf. He is there in time to save Abraham from sacrificing Isaac when God's angel arrives late after a wing malfunction. Written in the last years of Saramago's life, Cainwittily tackles many of the moral and logical non sequiturs created by a wilful, authoritarain God, forming part of Saramago's long argument with God and recalling his provocative novel The Gospel According to Jesus Christ.
