Jose Saramago died at 87 years old - R.I.P.

Saramago, nobel prize, was known for using long phrases and sentences, using punctuation for an unconventional way. The dialogues of characters are entered in the preceding paragraphs themselves, so there are no indents in his books: this type of tagging lines provides a strong sense of stream of consciousness to the point the reader to get confused if a certain dialogue was real or just a thought. Many of their sentences (ie sentences) occupy more than one page, using commas where most writers would use periods. Likewise, many of its paragraphs occupy whole chapters from other authors. Nevertheless his style does not make reading difficult, your readers can easily get used to your own pace.
