The Book of Disquietude is the "factless autobiography" of "Bernardo Soares," one of the 72 literary personae with which Portugal's greatest poet Fernando Pessoa created the theater of himself. Conceived in 1916, "Soares" is, Pessoa declares, "a mutilation" of his own personality. This is the first, and only complete, English edition.
