Synopsis "Historia del Cerco de Lisboa (in Spanish)"

Raimundo Silva es un revisor de textos de una editorial, un personaje anodino que tiene como misión en la vida conservar la integridad de los textos que llegan a sus manos. Un día, revisando un texto histórico, toma una decisión: introducir un «No» donde debiera aparecer un «Sí». Esta determinación altera, sin duda alguna, la historia escrita, pero también va a ser fundamental en su vida personal.

El conservador Raimundo Silva no volverá a ser sujeto paciente de la historia, tanto la universal como la personal, porque su acto de rebeldía le hace asumir el protagonismo que, como hombre -y por tanto hegemónico- le corresponde en la vida.

Jose Saramago
