6 out of 11 found this review helpful
and as good as it maybe, the reason rimbaud is the name he is today is the quality of the original poems not as a translation. find a copy with mathcing original texts and only get this if you fancy reading someones else's interpretation.
 Rimbaud as a living imagination of life April 17, 1999

I've read this book in Turkish. Then in English. I think Rimbaud is still the future of poetry. If you are looking for something to hold on to, you should have a look at this book. There is nothing but pure life, smell of the colors and eyes of the light which swows us the meaning. For we can make it bigger. That is what Rimbaud has done. That is what todays poetry and i am looking for i think.

A book for anyone who enjoys good writing. Filled with life and fantastic imagery, the only thing lacking in this collection are the original versions in French. Other than that, the translations are excellent, so much that one forgets that the poems were originally written in another langauge.
