  José Saramago

  José de Sousa Saramago (16 November 1922 – 18 June 2010) was a Portuguese novelist and recipient of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Literature, for his "parables sustained by imagination, compassion and irony [with which he] continually enables us once again to apprehend an elusory reality."

In 2003 Harold Bloom described Saramago as "the most gifted novelist alive in the world today."
