Selected Poems

Fernando Pessoa was a Portuguese poet, writer, and literary critic, known for his innovative and complex literary style. He is considered one of the most significant literary figures of the 20th century and a pioneer of modernist literature. Pessoa is best known for his use of heteronyms, creating distinct literary personas with their own styles and voices. Some of his most notable works include "The Book of Disquiet," a collection of philosophical and introspective writings, and the poetry collection "Message." His unique approach to writing and exploration of existential themes have had a profound impact on the literary world. Pessoa's work continues to inspire and influence contemporary writers and readers alike.
