Another Side of Person

Another Side of Person

Art and literature have these things, that we appropriate the great figures and works that made our culture grow and we can add a little of our art to it, respecting it and making it grow too.
Here you will find a real, but different, Fernando Pessoa. João Viegas adds a pinch of humor to the universal author and creates cartoons that show us the figure we all (don't) know, presenting him with a new look. No longer the occultist, the brilliant student, the obsessive, the depressed or the misogynist, much less the genius who prepared everything so that in the final phase of his life he would present himself in all his power and dominate the literary world, and who dies just as his plan was about to begin (this alone is already enough material for cartoons...), but rather a more worldly, current, close and, at times, even surrealist vision, but always, always, with a lot of humor.
Fernando, Fernandinho and their friends appear here as characters and participants in their own work, as a reflection of what he wrote, Pessoa as part of the world he created or in which he is now inserted. A book that, despite everything, manages to give us an image that is sometimes more real than the one that many have of him.
After all, does anyone really know who Fernando Pessoa was?
