LIVRARIA DO DESASSOSSEGO WILL SOON OPEN IN LISBON (more info will follow ...) And what exaclty is Livraria do Desassossego? A pop up bookshop where only one book is sold, the best book in the world, no less: The Book of Disquiet by Fernando Pessoa. It all started a few months ago when Livraria do Desassossego = The Bookstore of Disquiet = Uroens Bokhandel opened in Oslo, Norway. Here is a video clip which shows the atmosphere in the bookshop, and also from a sports stadium where people gathered to celebrate Pessoa. (sorry, the speech is in Norwegian and there are no subtitles in the video. But basically, what the people in the video are saying, is: Person1: I love Pessoa. This is great Person2: I love Pessoa. This is SO great! Person3: I love Pessoa SO much. This is GREAT!!! etc. NB Btw, the blond woman who appears midway in the clip, is Norways Crown Princess and commited reader, HRH Mette-Marit, who visited the pop up shop. Shes also a fan of Pessoa.
