The Anarchist Banker is a surprising story by Fernando Pessoa, originally published in 1922. In this work, the author unfolds a fierce, reasoned diatribe against the myth of egalitarianism and the illusions of modern democratic societies, through a dialogue between a banker who claims to be an anarchist and an incredulous young man. This edition includes previously unpublished fragments that Pessoa intended to incorporate into a corrected version of the book, reaffirming its status as a masterpiece of intellectual clarity.
