A Little Larger Than the Entire Universe: Selected Poems

Fernando Pessoa

New selection

The largest and richest English-language volume of poetry from the greatest twentieth-century writer you have never heard of (Los Angeles Times); ; Edited, Translated, and with an Introduction by Richard Zenith, the author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist Pessoa- A Biography;;A Penguin Classic;; Writing obsessively in French, English, and Portuguese, poet Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935) left a prodigious body of work, much of it credited to three heteronyms ?Alberto Caeiro, Ricardo Reis, and Alvaro de Campos?alter egos with startlingly different styles, points of view, and biographies. Offering a unique sampling of his most famous voices, this collection features Pessoa’s major, best-known works and several stunning poems that have come to light only in this century, including his long, highly autobiographical swan song. Featuring a rich body of work that has never before been translated into English, this is the finest introduction available to the stunning breadth of Pessoa’s genius.
