Antonio Botto Books

António Botto was a Portuguese poet and writer whose work is deeply marked by his personal life and the era in which he lived. Botto, who did not shy away from the subject of homosexuality in his writing, was considered daring and provocative in his time. His style is often described as lyrical, with a melancholic undertone and a profound interest in the beauty and transience of human existence. He spent many years abroad, during which his living conditions gradually declined, but his literary legacy endures as a testament to an artist who was not afraid to explore life's darker aspects in his work.
