Tavares is one of the most translated and awarded European writers. His unusual books have been published in more than 50 countries. The New Yorker stated, “Gonçalo M. Tavares is a writer who is unlike any you’ve read before. And he has a gift—like Flann O’Brien or Kafka or Beckett—for revealing the ways in which logic can be as faithful a servant of madness as of reason.”
