Product Information
A profound and genre-defying work of literature about love, death, and illness from one of Portugal's most celebrated writers "One of the essential writers of our tormented times."--Alberto Manguel, Times Literary Supplement "Little prepares one for this extraordinary book, in which each chapter, covering a single day, and lasting a single sentence, offers a teeming stream of consciousness. . . . Even pain is alive, and alive is the word for this book, alive and enduring."-- Michael Autrey, Booklist Incapacitated after the removal of a malignant tumor, the narrator, António, spends his days in a Lisbon hospital enduring the humiliations of severe illness. As he drifts in and out of consciousness, he revisits fragments of his life and the people who passed through it. He recalls the village where he lived as a child near the Mondego River amid the eucalyptus and pines, his parents and grandparents and their tight-knit community of potato farmers and tungsten miners, and the woman he loved--an unexpected polyphony of voices and places sounding in sharp counterpoint to debilitating pain. By the Rivers of Babylon conjures the past and the present all at once, revealing the power of memory to embolden us in the face of extraordinary suffering. This is António Lobo Antunes's homage to the beauty of a cherished life in its confrontation with imminent death.

Reviews
"Regarded as a contender for the Nobel Prize in literature. . . . The future tense is hopefully prescient, because [Lobo Antunes] is one of the essential writers of our tormented times."--Alberto Manguel, Times Literary Supplement "Arguably the greatest living Portuguese writer. . . . This work has undeniable literary merit."--Lawrence Olszewski, Library Journal "Little prepares one for this extraordinary book, in which each chapter, covering a single day, and lasting a single sentence, offers a teeming stream of consciousness. . . . Even pain is alive, and alive is the word for this book, alive and enduring."--Michael Autrey, Booklist "A haunting and lyrical work by one of Portugal's most acclaimed writers."-- Vol. 1 Brooklyn " By the Rivers of Babylon is like a dialogue between a man confronting death and his childhood self, a being who can't even conceive of dying. . . . As always, it is a pleasure to be buoyed along by Lobo Antunes's writing, as if floating along the Mondego River, whose headwaters young António would visit with his grandfather in the Serra da Estrela in the summer, when death was still something that happened to other people."--Alex Lanz, Full Stop "At work here in the fields of Joyce, Lobo Antunes uses a rolling, swirling syntax to capture the actual movements of human consciousness. His lightly punctuated sentences run forward and loop on themselves almost without pause, sweeping this reader along through an intense mental journey and leaving him amazed and enlightened. By the Rivers of Babylon is a remarkable literary accomplishment."--Billy Collins " By the Rivers of Babylon is another stunning achievement by Lobo Antunes, expertly rendered by the multi-gifted Jull Costa. Reading this bold meditation on Eros and Thanatos you are firmly in the presence of permanence, of the great god Literature."--William Giraldi, author of American Audacity Praise for António Lobo Antunes: "One of the living writers who will matter most."--Harold Bloom "A novelist of the very first rank."--George Steiner "A master navigator of the human psyche."-- Los Angeles Times Book Review "Perhaps Portugal's greatest living author . . . a genius."-- San Francisco Chronicle "One of the most skillful psychological portraitists writing anywhere."-- New Yorker, "Lobo Antunes uses a rolling, swirling syntax to capture the actual movements of human consciousness, leaving his readers amazed and enlightened. By the Rivers of Babylon is a remarkable literary accomplishment."--Billy Collins, "One of the living writers who will matter most."--Harold Bloom "Perhaps Portugal's greatest living author . . . A genius."--Alan Kaufman, San Francisco Chronicle Book Review, "Little prepares one for this extraordinary book, in which each chapter, covering a single day, and lasting a single sentence, offers a teeming stream of consciousness. . . . Even pain is alive, and alive is the word for this book, alive and enduring."-- Michael Autrey, Booklist "At work here in the fields of Joyce, Lobo Antunes uses a rolling, swirling syntax to capture the actual movements of human consciousness.

DON'T DO BUSINESS WITH THIS SELLER! Ordered a CD that shows more than 10 available. Says it will ship in 7 business days, although why? If they have more than 10 in stock and its available to ship... Well, after 7 days of nothing, I contact them. They wait a couple of days and respond they are still working on it. After another week it says it shipped. Then after a couple of days after that they tell me, its pending and if I would like to wait or get refunded. They don't have what they sell.
