From a tender age, Fernando Pessoa will confront the experience of loss in its most painful manifestations, and the theme of death will equally concern both the author under his own name and his heteronyms: Alberto Caeiro, Ricardo Reis, Álvaro de Campos, Bernardo Soares, and Barão de Teive.
In these stories, unpublished until recently and bearing the signature of Fernando Pessoa – some of which rival the lyricism of his poetry and others testify to his sociological, psychological, and generally epistemological concerns – suicides are foreshadowed and depicted, murders are committed, deaths occur that are justified and unjustified, while always in the background, the unparalleled voice of the poet resonates, defining: Death is the turn of the road, Dying is not to be seen anymore.
