FERNANDO PESSOA (1888–1935) was a Portuguese poet, writer, literary critic, translator, publisher and philosopher. He is described as one of the most significant literary figures of the 20th century shaping European modernism and one of the greatest poets in the Portuguese language. In his lifetime, he published four books in English and one alone in Portuguese, and died a virtual unknown. However, he left a lifetime of unpublished, unfinished or just sketchy work (more than 25,000 manuscript and typed pages). The heavy burden of editing this huge work is still in progress.
Pessoa wrote in almost every genre — poetry, prose, drama, philosophy, criticism, political theory — as well as developing a deep interest in occultism, theosophy, and astrology. He drew up horoscopes not only for himself and his friends, but also for many dead writers and historical figures, among them Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde, and Robespierre, as well as for his heteronyms, a term he chose over "pseudonym" because it more accurately described their stylistic and intellectual independence from him, their creator, and from each other — for he gave them all complex biographies and they all had their own distinctive styles and philosophies. They sometimes interacted, even criticizing or translating each other’s work. Some of Pessoa’s fictitious writers were mere sketches, some wrote in English and French, but his three main poetic heteronyms — Alberto Caeiro, Ricardo Reis, Álvaro de Campos — wrote only in Portuguese and each produced a very solid body of work.
THE BOOK OF DISQUIET (1982), Pessoa's posthumous prose masterpiece, is one of the last century’s great works of literature. Unfinished and unfinishable, it contains exquisite melancholy observations, aphorisms, and ruminations dealing with themes of nostalgia and alienation. As Richard Zenith writes in his Introduction to the Penguin edition: "What we have here isn’t a book but its subversion and negation: the ingredients for a book whose recipe is to keep sifting, the mutant germ of a book and its weirdly lush ramifications, the rooms and windows to build a book but no floor plan and no floor, a compendium of many potential books and many others already in ruins. What we have in these pages is an anti-literature, a kind of primitive, verbal CAT scan of one man’s anguished soul."
