Jeff’s Reviews > A Little Larger Than the Entire Universe: Selected Poems > Status Update

I'm so excited I found this! Most poets want to create a body of work; ambitious poets want to inspire a movement of followers. Pessoa, manically enterprising, tried to write a whole movement himself, inventing poets, writing their poems, drafting their biographies, even doing their astrological charts. Did he complete this mad enterprise? Absolutely not. Are the results uneven? Yes. Do I love him for trying? Dearly!
