An \u0026quot;autobiography\u0026quot; or \u0026quot;diary\u0026quot; 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\u0026#39;s death. A monumental literary event, this exciting, new, complete edition spans Fernando Pessoa\u0026#39;s entire writing life.","author_name":"Fernando Pessoa","author_url":"https://hardcover.app/authors/fernando-pessoa","thumbnail_url":"https://assets.hardcover.app/edition/30435890/54c83633814939a18c47533250256fa5b29abf85.jpeg","thumbnail_width":327,"thumbnail_height":500}
