Fernando Pessoa’s The Book of Disquiet

Fernando Pessoa’s The Book of Disquiet is a book dreamt of in reality. He writes in crisp and vivid awareness of his thoughts. If life is tiresome and existence is monotonous, no one escapes from its clutches better than he does.

It is a novelized autobiography. An attempt to interiorize the indifference and absurdity of existing. A mirror through which one is conscious of consciousness itself; of everything that we live for - love, loss, happiness, sadness, melancholy, and comfort.
