Portuguese - Book of the week.

Ensaio Sobre a Cegueira José Saramago is one of Portugal’s most celebrated writers (and the recipient of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Literature), and  Ensaio Sobre a Cegueira  is one of his most famous novels. The book tells the story of a city afflicted by a blindness epidemic, focusing mainly on a core group of characters who are among the first to get sick. As the city around them unravels in a wave of panic, the main characters stick together in an attempt to survive. Saramago is known for his long sentences that lack punctuation, so this is probably better for more advanced learners.
