Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This is an autobiography of Miguel Torga. Of the six days which comprise "The Creation", this volume contains the two which recreate Torga's childhood spent in the Tras-os-Montes province, as the son of an illiterate peasant family scraping a living off the rocky flanks of "The Mountain"; and a b…oyhood of near servitude to his uncle in Brazil, on a remote estate carved out of the serrao. Returning to Portugal, Torga resumed an education curtailed at primary school by poverty. He qualified as a doctor and returned to practice in his native village, where his "Tales" ("Contos" and "Novos Contos da Montanha") are set. Torga experienced the banning of his books and imprisonment by the Salazar regime. Even after the Revolution in 1974 Torga remained sceptical. He was feted and translated into most of the languages of Europe, but he remained a man of the Tras-os-Montes, committed to his people and opposed to the inequalities that persisted. By the time he died in 1995, he had written over 50 books. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: New. Miguel Torga's celebrated Tales (Contos and Novos Contos de Montanha) are set in the remote and barren Tras-os-Montos-'over the mountains'-region of north-east Portugal. There the writer was born into a family of illiterate country people. He speaks with first-hand knowledge of the men and women living… there - complex in emotion and thought, elusive and thrifty with words, direct in action, forced by circumstance to deal with matters of love and hate, life and death, without the comfortable illusions and material expectations that protect most people, even the urban poor. These tautly constructed tales, brief and telling, exactly observed, touch and haunt the reader in the ways that myth and epic do. Torga's disconcerting view of rural life led to the banning of the Tales when they were first published. Later editions were published in Brazil, smuggled into Portugal and passed from hand to hand in literary and student circles. Torga was imprisoned for his unremitting opposition to the Salazar regime. He has since risen to an unrivalled position in modern Portuguese literature, with fifty published works to his credit, including poetry, fiction, plays, journals, essays, and a celebrated autobiography. He has received numerous international awards, twice been nominated for the Nobel Prize, and his work has been translated into most languages. Yet hardly at all, until now, into English. This is the first complete edition of the Tales to appear in translation here as one of the first three books in Carcanet's new series From the Portuguese.

Encuadernación de tapa dura. Condition: Bueno. No sé con qué palabras debo presentarte este libro, incluso después de las vueltas que ha dado. Escrito de una sentada hace más de cuarenta años, a la edad en que los atrevimientos son argumentos, dejé en él toda la fantasía descabellada y toda la torpeza expresiva que tenemos impun…emente en la juventud. Confieso incluso que, en ese aspecto, nunca tuve una experiencia igual. El bolígrafo parecía en mi mano el mango endiablado de una escoba de bruja. Volé, no hay duda. Miguel Torga «La muerte no podrá borrar ninguna de las palabras que escribió.» José Saramago.
