The Double by José Saramago

5.0

A history teacher watches a video in which a bit player bears a striking resemblance to himself. He's obsessed with finding his double and upsets the order of the universe when he does. Who are we, really?

NOTE: Saramago is not a easy read. A sentence can take half a page. A paragraph more than a page. I find it's best to just surrender to his stream-of-consciousness style and keep reading. His works are thought-provoking.
