So I've been learning Spanish for a year to read this book in its original language and I just discovered that it's written in Portuguese?
WTF? What sort of shit tier language is Spanish? And it's supposed to be some sort of consolation that I can read a book about some fat fuck autistic knight and his donkey?
Kek I bet Portugese is great for poetry And any translation reccs for Pessoa? It seems really important
Carson Rivera
Not sure if bait. Don Quixote is the GOAT. You can read Borges, Bolaño, Cortázar and all the Boom writers in the original. There's also pretty good poetry.
Tyler Hall
just buy el libro del desasosiego
Lincoln Scott
this book is literally me
Noah Hill
underrated
Jayden Lopez
Who do you rec for Poetry?
Henry Gomez
translations from Richard Zenith are the best for this book and for the poetry also. he is portuguese as well and won one of the most prestigious prizes in portuguese culture the Pessoa Prize
García Lorca, Bécquer, Octavio Paz, Pizarnik, Unamuno, Neruda, Machado (Antonio), Gabriela Mistral, Vallejo, Sor Juana.
I don't really like poetry but those are the names I remember from when I attended College.
Samuel Gray
sneed
Henry Gonzalez
Not the OP you referenced but Borges is a better poet than prose writer.
Jaime Sabines, Quevedo, Selected Octavio Paz, Sor Juana, Lope de Vega, Neruda. Listen to songs by Joaquin Sabina, the greatest singer/songwriter of the XX Century. Hear Mercedes Sosa too.

I would add Góngora, a very selected list of poems from Huidobro,and calderón de la Barca. I personally love "libro del buen amor" by Juan Ruiz, but it is too religious for most people

Luís Vaz de Camões, Herberto Helder and Eugénio Andrade are some of the best. Specially Camões he is the nation's poet.
