Forever Someone Else: Selected Poems

Forever Someone Else offers an ample selection of the poetry written by Pessoa under his own name and in the names of the personas he called “heteronyms”: Alberto Caeiro, Ricardo Reis and Álvaro de Campos. Unusual not only for writing under different names but also for adopting dissimilar points of view and radically diverse literary styles, Fernando Pessoa, of all poets from all ages, was like no one else.
