THE ANARCHIST BANKER

The Anarchist Banker was published in 1922, but it is an extremely timely work.

The short story, with its oxymoronic and provocative title, tackles the tyranny exercised over man by "social inventions", among which the strongest and worst is money. It is a dialogue between the writer-"banker" and his interlocutor, who asks to clarify the contradiction of the coexistence between the "anarchist" and the "banker".
The work tries to overturn established beliefs and lead man towards freedom.

The great Portuguese writer shakes the establishment, challenges us, and challenges us to read him!

THE Fernando Pessoa was born in Lisbon in 1888 and died in 1935. He is considered one of the most important poets and writers of the 20th century. He also wrote literary reviews and did translations. He was an extremely prolific writer and used many heteronyms – as he called them rather than pseudonyms – instead of his own name in his works. The dozens of poets and prose writers he invented each had a different theme and style and expressed his multidimensional self. He published a small part of his vast work, a work unfinished and multiple, which he bequeathed to future generations locked in the famous chest, thus ensuring his posterity.
