Fernando Pessoa Reviews

"Kotowicz is a perceptive commentator on this remarkable mess of talent. He manages to disentangle the various heteronyms and their histories without descending into jargon or needlessly psychologising. He writes with admirable brevity and depth... An extremely readable book."(Times Literary Supplement)
