Description
Arthur Rimbaud's Illuminations presents a dazzling collection of poetry that embodies all forms of literature. This modernist masterpiece has been given new life with John Ashbery's powerful translation, presented alongside the original French text in parallel. A preface by Ashbery provides context for this literary event of the year. Ashbery's rendering evokes the glittering beauty of Rimbaud's work, bringing its kaleidoscopic charm to a wider audience. With 176 pages of poetry, Illuminations is a must-have for anyone interested in modernist literature and the works of Arthur Rimbaud. A new translation that brings this beautiful book to life, Illuminations is a significant addition to any poetry collection.
