"The Creation of the World is the fictionalised autobiography of one of Portugal's most celebrated modern writers. It is both a real and symbolic account of his life's journey." "The six days of this Creation, published in English for the first time, sweep us through space and time, from childhood harmony in the mountain regions of Tras-os-Montes in Portugal to the Brazilian hinterlands and back, from the beginnings of the twentieth century through the years of the Spanish Civil War and the Second World War up to the euphoria of the Portuguese Revolution in 1974." We accompany the narrator from his childhood, his teenage years of near servitude to an uncle in Brazil, through his return to Portugal where he resumes an education curtailed by poverty and qualifies as a doctor. After experiencing the banning of his books and imprisonment by the Salazar regime, 'To be a writer in Portugal,' he confided, 'is like being buried alive and constantly scratching at the lid of one's coffin.'.
