The Book of Disquiet by Fernando Pessoa
- Publisher Penguin Classics
- ISBN 9780141183046
- Year 2002 (1st published 1998)
This book was recommended by a friend, Fran, after I mentioned my interested in ideas of The absurd. It was written on thousands of notebooks and scraps of paper found in a trunk after Pessoa’s death. It’s absolutely miserable through and through but equally beautiful and cathartic.
