Among the file-cards for the living and the dead, one - of an apparently ordinary woman - will transform his life. By day Senhor Jose labours in the labyrinthine stacks of the city's central registry. By night he ferrets for facts about the famous, compiling his own archive of births, deaths and marriages., One day he chances upon an index card of an ordinary woman whose details hold as much fascination for him as any celebrity's. Striking forth from the regimentation of his daily life, Jose starts to track the woman down, obsessively following a thread of clues in a bid to rescue her from an oblivion deeper than the grave.

Críticas:
"A novel that has soul, which Saramago offers to his readers with all his witty, intelligent, tender and magical generosity" (Samantha Harvey Independent)
"Offers an unearthly, muted beauty; a freedom from the obvious, the ideological and trivial; an atmosphere of profound serenity, and a benevolent humor" (Literary Review)
"Both delightful and unsettling which is perhaps the mark of true literature" (Anthony Daniels Sunday Telegraph)
"A tantalizing novel...shifting and teasing, full of metaphorical labyrinths and false trails" (Herald)
"It is the marriage of the living and the dying...that so strongly characterizes the writing of Jose Saramago" (New Statesman)

'When a very good book finds us at just the right moment in life, it can become stitched into our own identity. All the Names – a novel about identity and connection – has become stitched into mine' Samantha Harvey, Independent
