A Bagagem do Viajante

Synopsis

The Traveller's Baggage (Portuguese: A Bagagem do Viajante) is a volume of newspaper articles by Nobel Prize-winning author José Saramago. It was first published in 1973. This title consists of more than 59 chronicles, first published in the evening newspaper A Capital (1969) and in the "Jornal do Fundão" (1971-1972). In these chronicles, we see much of Saramago, who was restless about the situation in his country at the time and opposed to Marcelo Caetano's government.
