«Se está haciendo cada vez más tarde» is the epistolary novel by Antonio Tabucchi, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (263 pages, in Spanish).
Seventeen letters written by male characters to as many female figures make up this work, in which times and messages seem not to fit, as if life were badly assembled. A final female voice responds to all of them in a journey through human passions, nostalgia and the darkest areas of the soul.
The work belongs to the Panorama de narrativas collection, volume 500, translated by Carlos Gumpert.
Recommended for readers of contemporary literary fiction and followers of Antonio Tabucchi's Italian narrative.
Antonio Tabucchi was an Italian writer and academic who taught Portuguese language and literature at the University of Siena, Italy. Deeply in love with Portugal, he was an expert, critic and translator of the works of Fernando Pessoa from whom he drew the conceptions of saudade, of fiction and of the heteronyms. Tabucchi was first introduced to Pessoa's works in the 1960s when attending the Sorbonne. He was so charmed that when he returned to Italy, he took an introductory course in Portuguese for a better comprehension of the poet.
