Una preciosa novela sobre el espíritu y la vida de la gente que habita en la pequeña localidad portuguesa de Galveias, al norte de Alentejo.Una noche de enero, una serie de explosiones causan un terrible estruendo en las propiedades del doctor Matta Figueiras. Los vecinos, aturdidos, pronto descubren el impacto de una especie de meteorito. Acto seguido, un intenso olor a azufre lo impregna todo y una persistente lluvia torrencial parece no tener fin. Cualquiera diría que el Universo está decidido a desafiar la cordura de los habitantes de este pueblo llamado Galveias

Esta es la puerta de acceso a la vida de esta comunidad alentejana los hermanos Cordato, que llevan cincuenta años sin hablarse, o la brasileña Isabella, que además de la panadería regenta el burdel, o el cartero Joaquim Janeiro, conocedor de todos los secretos y que oculta el suyo, o Miau, el tonto del pueblo, o la familia de los Cabeça, pero también los perros, que con sus ladridos trazan su peculiar mapa de las calles. Todos ellos conforman el universo de Galveias, un minucioso retrato de la realidad portuguesa que nos acerca a su identidad más profunda.Bellamente escrita y con una brillante sofisticación formal, la sensibilidad y a la vez la aspereza que nos brinda Peixoto convierten "Galveias" en una de las grandes novelas sobre el mundo rural y confirman a este autor como uno de los escritores portugueses más destacados de su generación, como ya señaló el Premio Nobel José Saramago.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
On a regular January evening, the universe jolts the small town of Galveias with a great mystery. A series of explosions have caused a terrible roar in Doctor Matta's properties. His neighbors, stunned and trying to investigate what has happened, discover there has been a meteorite impact that not only releases a suffocating heat, but also covers everything with a horrible and constant sulfuric smell.

This is the way we get to access the lives of a great cast of characters and who, one page at a time, build a world for the reader to discover. The small town of Galveias is a snapshot of life, a purifying image of a bleak reality that a country is facing, and one that contributes to its identity.
One of the most surprising revelations of Portuguese literature - Jose Saramago
