The prizewinning, complete and unabridged translationthe best Englishlanguage version we are likely to see for a long time, if ever (The Guardian)of a work of unclassifiable genius: the crowning achievement of Portugals modern masterEdited, Translated, and with an Introduction by Richard Zenith, the author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist Pessoa: A BiographyWinner of the Calouste Gulbenkian Translation Prize for Portuguese TranslationA Penguin ClassicFernando Pessoa was many writers in one. He attributed his prolific writings to a wide range of alternate selves, each of which had a distinct biography, ideology, and horoscope. When he died in 1935, Pessoa left behind a trunk filled with unfinished and unpublished writings, among which were the remarkable pages that make up his posthumous masterpiece, The Book of Disquiet, an astonishing work that, in George Steiner's words, 'gives to Lisbon the haunting spell of Joyce's Dublin or Kafka's Prague.'Published for the first time some fifty years after his death, this unique collection of short, aphoristic paragraphs comprises the 'autobiography' of Bernardo Soares, one of Pessoa's alternate selves. Part intimate diary, part prose poetry, part descriptive narrative, captivatingly translated by Richard Zenith, The Book of Disquiet is one of the greatest works of the twentieth century.Pessoa is a genius.
