A review by cfrench575
The Book of Disquiet by Fernando Pessoa
2.0
Never, even in the most angst-ridden emo lyrics of my youth, have I encountered such pure and undistilled existentialism:
"But all of us are surrounded by the abyss of time, in which we will ultimately vanish; the hunger of the abyss will swallow us all..."
The tedium of reading this book is not unlike the tedium of life as described by this book. But some of us don't mind subjecting ourselves to that kind of thing.
