I Am the Size of Whatever I See

Published by Bertrand Editora, one of Portugal’s most prestigious publishers and one of the oldest European publishing houses with nearly three hundred years of history, this is an abbreviated selection of some of the most striking and significant poems by Fernando Pessoa, consisting of writings by Pessoa himself and three of his most prominent heteronyms: Alberto Caeiro, Ricardo Reis, and Álvaro de Campos. All the texts and poems are translated from Portuguese into English by internationally published poet and award-winning literary translator Calvin Olsen, who currently teaches at Ohio State University.
