Les Intermittences de la mort

The concept is so bold and surreal—I'm curious whether Saramago was exploring philosophical questions or making a commentary on society's relationship with mortality.

It made me think about how deeply death influences our social order and individual behavior. Would life truly lose its meaning without the inevitability of death?

The conclusion left me pondering whether Saramago was offering a critique or a philosophical reflection on the cycle of life and death.
