Translalted from the Hebrew by the author and Fiona Sampson
June 2006

PESSOA, Fernando
Selected Poems
Trans. from the Portuguese by David Butler.
April 2004

Pessoa (1888-1935) was one of the great literary figures of the 20th century, testing notions of identity and poetic voice to their limit. In the words of David Butler in the book's introduction, he "wrote into being a heteronymic hall of mirrors from which the myriad image staring out despairs of finding the man who supposedly gave rise to it." David Butler holds a PhD from Trinity College, Dublin and works as Education Officer at the James Joyce Centre.
