Review:
"THE DOUBLE hums with imaginative energy...[C]learly the work of a great writer...."
Kirkus, 09/01/2004
Review:"The wildly ramifying plot has an improvised air but proves to be tightly knit, constructed toward a stark dénouement. The tight construction floats, however, on a bubbling, uninhibited authorial voice of cheerful volatility....Saramago has the gift of gab. Our impression is of a writer, like Faulkner, so confident of his resources and ultimate destination that he can bring any improbability to life by hurling words at it."
John Updike, New Yorker, 09/17/2004
