«Libro del desasosiego de Bernardo Soares» is the intimate diary of Fernando Pessoa, published by Editorial Planeta in hardcover (502 pages, in Spanish).
Bernardo Soares, an assistant bookkeeper in Lisbon, notes in this diary his daydreams and musings on existence: solitude, tedium, beauty, and the craft of writing. Between the essay, poetic prose, and short narrative, he draws a melancholy portrait of a city and of a consciousness that observes itself without concessions.
Published posthumously, it is part of the Clásicos Contemporáneos Internacionales collection, with a translation from the Portuguese, introduction, and notes by Ángel Crespo.
For readers of Portuguese literature and of Fernando Pessoa's work, especially those interested in his heteronym Bernardo Soares.
Fernando António Nogueira de Seabra Pessoa was a Portuguese poet, writer, literary critic, translator, and publisher. He has been described as one of the most significant literary figures of the 20th century and one of the greatest poets in the Portuguese literature. He also wrote in and translated from English and French.
