“From the ground come up the ears and the trees, rise, we know it, the beasts that run through the fields, the birds that fly over them. People are rising with their hopes . Like a wheat ears or a flower, a book can rise. Like a bird, like a flag...” wrote Nobel Prize winner Jose Saramago in the afterword to this book. "The Risen" is one of the most striking novels of the twentieth century, it firmly falls into the soul, because a rare literary work has such a deadly power. In this book there is everything passion, rage, fear, desire for light... Each page is a kind of door into which you enter the soul of a person, into its most secret corners. A person can be humiliated, forced to consider himself an outcast, an outcast, a pariah, but only physically can be trampled by it finally, and the “Rised” is a brilliant proof of this.
