If looking for works translated into (fluent) English, visit the (Pessoa archive) site [ http://arquivopessoa.net/textos ]

click on the line that begins '7. Poesia Inglesa ' and it will reveal 6 links (e.g. '35 SONNETS') that lead to translations of Pessoa's work. Impressive.

As far as I know the “poesia inglesa” section, including the book you mentioned refer to poems originally written in English (not translated) by Pessoa.

He went to school in Durban, South Africa and was fluent in English.
