Saramago tells the story of a history professor that, by chance, discovers in a rented movie a man identical to him, and decides to go in search of him. This novel poses the essential questions of life and the search of one's own identity: How do we know who we are? What does identity consist of? What defines us as individuals and as unique people? Can we assume that our voice, our characteristics, even the smallest distinctive mark is repeated in another person? In this book, Saramago raises these questions and once again explores the depths of the soul. Descripcion in Spanish: Saramago cuenta en este libro la historia de un profesor de historia que, por casualidad, descubre una grabación en vídeo de otro hombre igual que él, y decide salir en su búsqueda. El hombre duplicado es una novela que se lee con la avidez de un relato de intriga pero que nos sumerge en las cuestiones esenciales de la vida y en la búsqueda de la propia identidad.
