Lobo Antunes is probably the best Portuguese novelist alive today and this is one of his best novels. The main themes are the usual in the novels of Lobo Antunes: portuguese post-revolution society and just how deeply fascism had grown in Portugal. The writing is, as in most of the author's novels, pretty Faulknerian - we're told how each character's mind interpreted events, a technique that creates a nice literary contrast between perspectives of events described. Lobo Antunes' masterful use of the Portuguese language makes for a highly engaging yet rather complex book. Highly recommended for those who enjoy complex literature (in the vein of Faulkner), especially if you can read it in Portuguese. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Set in the aftermath of the "Carnation Revolution" of April 25, 1974, Antonio Lobo Antunes's Warning to the Crocodiles is a fragmented narrative of the violent tensions resulting from major political changes in Portugal. Told through the memories of four women who spend their days fashioning homemade explosives and participating in the kidnap and torture of communists, the novel details the clandestine activities of an extreme right-wing Salazarist faction resisting the country's new embrace of democracy. Warning to the Crocodiles (Exortação aos Crocodilos) has won: - Best Novel by the Portuguese Writers Association (Grande Prémio de Romance e Novela da Associação Portuguesa de Escritores) (1999) - The D. Dinis Prize of the Casa de Mateus Foundation (Prémio D. Dinis da Fundação Casa de Mateus) (1999) - The Austrian State Literature Prize (Prémio de Literatura Europeia do Estado Austríaco) (2000) Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
