Written by Paulo Borges, O Apocalipse segundo Fernando Pessoa e Ofélia Queirós (“The Apocalypse according to Fernando Pessoa and Ofélia Queirós”) was published by Talentilicious.

Around the idea of the reunion of Fernando Pessoa and Ofélia Queirós at Cais das Colunas, in a timeless and visionary plan closely linked to the imagination of Lisbon, the Tagus and the Atlantic. In a model inspired by the apocalypse according to Saint John, Ophelia reveals to the person the fundamental truth about the meaning of their encounter and love and obtains the recognition of the orthonym Pessoa and its various heteronyms. The work gives voice to key passages and moments in the life and work of a person and recreates the episode of Ilha dos Amores by Luís de Camões, around Pessoa and Ofélia.

The work also recreates fundamental aspects of Portuguese cultural mythology, central to Fernando Pessoa, such as the universalist vocation of the same culture to unite East and West and contribute to a metamorphosis of consciousness and a new more fraternal civilization in relation to living beings and the Earth.

The book is composed using the typefaces Akkordeon and Periódico Display by Eduardo Manso from Emtype Foundry, and Azo Sans by Rui Abreu from R-Typography.
