"BrilliantharrowingPacks the impact of an exploding mortar shell." -Kai Maristed, Los Angeles TimesIn the tradition of William Faulkner and Gabriel García Márquez, one of the twentieth centurys most original literary voices offers "kaleidoscopic visions of a modern Portugal scarred by its Fascist past and its bloody colonial wars in Africa" (Paris Review). Hailed as a masterpiece of world literature, The Land at the End of the World-in an acclaimed translation by Margaret Jull Costa-recounts the anguished tale of a Portuguese medic haunted by memories of war. Like the Ancient Mariner who will tell his tale to anyone who listens, the narrators evening unfolds like a fever dream that is both tragic and haunting. The result is one of the great war novels of the modern age.
