OK, so I'm essentially cheating here. In between teaching a class in the spring that featured Fernando Pessoa - and giving two talks (the Philosophy Week presentation and the upcoming talk I'm giving in Portugal) - I ended up reading The Book of Disquiet from beginning to end (as compared to just occasionally dipping into it need be for the class and the presentations). So shoot me. Sorry, it's just a great, great book, and, as I've mentioned several times, The Book of Disquiet is definitely the book of my 60s. However, since I have a separate thread simply based on my reflections on Pessoa's work (see Disquiet on the right side of the screen) I don't know what I have to say here, other than the fact that you should all read the book - and read it repeatedly.
