Which Portuguese novelist wrote 'The Stone Raft'?

Which Portuguese novelist wrote 'The Stone Raft'? José Saramago wrote it.

Published in Portuguese in 1986 as A Jangada de Pedra, the novel imagines the Iberian Peninsula breaking away from Europe and floating into the Atlantic. The impossible event becomes a way to explore Portugal and Spain, identity, political borders, and the relationship between the peninsula and the rest of Europe.

The story follows five characters from Portugal and Spain whose lives become connected as they travel across the transformed landscape. Saramago’s characteristic style—long sentences, unusual punctuation, irony, and philosophical narration—makes the fantastical premise feel both political and intimate.

A common mix-up is to associate the book with Gabriel García Márquez because it is often discussed alongside magical realism. Saramago, however, was Portuguese, while García Márquez was Colombian. Saramago later won the 1998 Nobel Prize in Literature.
