Could you message me your postal address? I will pass it on to HarperCollins India and get them to mail you a copy. It's really difficult to pick a favorite Saramago. It would come down to a deathmatch between 'All the Names' and 'Blindness'.

Quotes by Vikram Paralkar  (?)
Quotes are added by the Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ community and are not verified by Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ.

“Health itself appeared so bleak a state that sickness and death wrung little pity from him any more. Sometimes, when a patient’s final breaths seemed no more than the last turns of a wheel, leaving behind an object to be removed, charred, turned to ash, and stirred into a riverbed, his indifference terrified even him.”
Vikram Paralkar, Night Theater

“The lack of gods in the clinic troubled her, though. In a place that people visited for fear of death there needed to be some source of hope.”
Vikram Paralkar, Night Theater

“Todos creemos que la iluminación nos dará placer. Pero ninguno se atreve a mirar directamente el sol del mediodía.”
Vikram Paralkar, Las Aflicciones

Borges, of all the authors, does not yet have a group on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ. What? He does. Now.
