Cain by Jose Saramago

Tags: 

This posthumously published short novel was the last book written by Nobel Laureate Jose Saramago.  After Cain kills his brother Abel, he is forced to wander forever, through space and time, through the Old Testament.  Along the way, Cain runs into characters and situations that we are all familiar with:  Noah, Abraham, Sodom and Gomorrah, and the Tower of Babel.   Saramago’s powerful retelling of Bible stories is not short on satire and contains the author’s usual charm.  Check Our Catalog
