The Blog of Disquiet

I didn’t even have pictures on Disquiet.com, which I founded in 1996, until the mid-2000s. Only recently did I start using the first person when writing here. Ironically, it was many years after naming the website for Fernando Pessoa’s The Book of Disquiet that I finally came to recognize — not just to see, but to get — the parallel: fragmented writing that adds up to something. That, in a word, is a blog. And in a little over two months, it will have been 27 years.
