The Book of Disquiet is the Portuguese modernist master Fernando
Pessoa's greatest literary achievement. An "autobiography" or
"diary" containing exquisite melancholy observations, aphorisms,
and ruminations, this classic work grapples with all the eternal
questions. Now, for the first time the texts are presented
chronologically, in a complete English edition by master translator
Margaret Jull Costa. Most of the texts in The Book of Disquiet are
written under the semi-heteronym Bernardo Soares, an assistant
bookkeeper. This existential masterpiece was first published in
Portuguese in 1982, forty-seven years after Pessoa's death. A
monumental literary event, this exciting, new, complete edition
spans Fernando Pessoa's entire writing life.
