What to read after Orpheu?

Orpheu - Revista Trimestral de Literatura was published in 1915. The project was to be a quarterly magazine, the first issue corresponding to the months of January to March and the second from April to June. A third, of which proofs remain, due to lack of money to print it, was never completed or launched. The title is the result of a commitment to the symbolist tendency of Luís de Montalvor, who signed the introduction, and from the fact that among the collaborators there was a Brazilian poet, Ronald de Carvalho, who wanted the magazine to reach the public in Brazil.The translator notes that: "My translation of Orpheu is, for me, the key to an unknown door. The poems in Orpheu 1 & 2 are both feminized and masculinized. As a whole, they reveal a turn inwards towards a way of looking at oneself as the other, encapsulating the absent-present, feminine-masculine, nowhere-everywhere collision at the core not only of art but life itself. This unique and utterly enchanted poetic vision is centered, in my view, around the idea that Orpheus and his wife are one."
