«L'hora del diable i altres ficcions» is a book of fantastic short stories by Fernando Pessoa in Catalan, published by Proa in paperback.
The volume brings together brief fictions in which the devil offers his version of the universe, an eccentric gourmet prepares the most original dinner in the world, a philosopher vanishes while speculating about time and space, and a detective turns Sherlock Holmes's logic into the only possible adventure.
The translation is by Albert Mestres; the edition, 168 pages, was published on March 23, 2000 in the A Tot Vent-Tela collection.
For readers of short stories with a fantastic or philosophical tone and for those who want to discover Fernando Pessoa's prose.
