Finished this monster. What can I say? A modernist masterpiece that belongs to the same shelf as The Magic Mountain, The Death of Virgil, and Berlin Alexanderplatz. A decadent baroque symphony of a novel. Unjustly neglected. Its reputation will continue to grow.

Very sad news. RIP Antonio Lobo Antunes. A true magician of the word. One of the greats.

The quality is terrible. Very flimsy. But the font is big, which makes it an OK reading copy.
'It is colossal, stunning in its linguistic power"
"Until Schattenfroh is hopefully translated into Swedish, I will probably have to wait a long time to read a contemporary novel of similar brilliance."

Publishers Weekly reviews The Beginnings:
โtowering absurdist work that is perhaps easier to admire than enjoyโ
โItโs a bit exhausting, but there are plenty of marvels to be found.โ
