About the Author
Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935), the Portuguese poet, literary critic, and essayist, is one of the most significant literary figures of the twentieth century. He wrote not only under his own name but under over a hundred others (including Alexander Search, Alberto Caeiro, Álvaro de Campos, Ricardo Reis, and Bernardo Soares).
Margaret Jull Costa has been translating Spanish, Portuguese, and Latin American fiction for over twenty years. She won the translator's portion of the 1997 IMPAC Award for Javier Marías' Heart So White and the 2006 Premio Valle-Inclán for her translation of the first volume of his trilogy Your Face Tomorrow: Fever and Spear.
Patricio Ferrari is a professor at Rutgers University and has translated and edited works by Fernando Pessoa and Alejandra Pizarnik.
Reviews
As searing as Rilke or Mandelstam.
Pessoa invented numerous alter egos. Arguably, the four greatest poets in the Portuguese language were all Pessoa using different names.
Pessoa's amazing personality is as beguiling and mysterious as his unique poetic output.--William Boyd
