Geschichte Der Belagerung Von Lissabon by José Saramago
A disenchanted proofreader in Lisbon deliberately alters a single word in a manuscript recounting the medieval siege of the city; this small falsification sets off a personal and philosophical unraveling—reviving a passionate relationship with a colleague, provoking meditations on history, language, truth and guilt, and transforming a straightforward past into a playful, subversive exploration of storytelling and responsibility.
