Description

Arthur Rimbaud's Selected Poems and Letters brings together a unique and innovative body of work, showcasing the poet's extraordinary use of language and form. The collection includes over 100 letters, many written after Rimbaud abandoned literature, offering a glimpse into the life and mind of one of France's most unconventional poets. Rimbaud's poetry is characterized by its rigorous experimentation with language and form, often incorporating elements of chaos and disorder. This edition presents Rimbaud's greatest verse, alongside his record of youthful torment, A Season in Hell, and provides a unique insight into the poet's two distinct careers. With its unique blend of lyricism and innovation, this collection is a significant contribution to the world of poetry.
