António Lobo Antunes

At the age of seven he decided to be a writer, but when he was 16, his father sent him to the medical school of the University of Lisbon.

•

His style is considered to be very dense, heavily influenced by William Faulkner and Louis-Ferdinand Céline, and his books are also very large in size.

Eduardo Gageiro

He worked on Gente with José Cardoso Pires (whose introduction provides us with one of the earliest and most acute appraisals of Gageiro’s work), on Lisboa Operária with David Mourão-Ferreira and, most recently, on Olhares with António Lobo Antunes.

Solveig Nordlund

She also directed short films and documentaries about writers, such as Marguerite Duras, J.G. Ballard and António Lobo Antunes.
