Despite his fame surprisingly little can be confirmed about his life resulting in "successive biographers have woven the few concrete facts known about Camões's life into a bewildering complexity of fantasy and theory that is unsupported by concrete documentary evidence" Britanica. While some of his poetry was lost during his lifetime Os Lusíadas The Lusiads remains a classic. Here this lovely collection presents romantic verse from the beloved poet.
