Poet thirsty for the absolute, author of an extensive and multifaceted work that encompasses various literary genres (poetry, short story, novel, diary, essay, theater), he shows himself as he is in an autobiographical register that transcends his own history. The Diary, which he wrote for almost 60 years, is the testimony of a time and a space, the record of the physical and human landscape, the place of the search for a collective identity, and also travel accounts, annotation and commentary on readings, reflection on the practice of medicine, justification of writing, social responsibility and protest. Portuguese and European, regional and universal, Torga is a writer of the world, translated into more than twenty languages and internationally distinguished several times.
