I'd never read any Pessoa before and I plan on reading The Book of Disquiet, but I wanted to get a feel of his style and this was short and lovely. He's quite painful to read because he's confused and nauseous right before your eyes, and it's blurry and full of headache, loss and self hatred. The su
