Synopsis "a season in hell and other works/une saison en enfer et oeuvres diverses,a dual-language book (in French)"

Widely regarded as one of the creators of prose poems, Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891) was also a forerunner of the Surrealists. The works in this excellently translated collection, written by the author when he was between 15 and 20 years old, became a rallying point of the poetic avant-garde during the late nineteenth century throughout Western Europe and the United States. They have remained a source of inspiration for their youthful, rebellious spirit and unmatched verbal allure. Included among the works are the complete versions of Rimbaud's autobiographical A Season in Hell; his entire Illuminations, a large selection of early verse poems; and The Drunken Boat, a work considered by many to be the poet's masterpiece. This volume of witty, sarcastic, and expressive works is required reading for students of world literature, and will also appeal to a wide general audience.

Jean Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud (Charleville, 1854 - Marsella, 1891) era ya considerado un genio con apenas veinte años gracias a unos poemas y una prosa lírica que bebieron de su estilo de vida, feroz y excesivo. Su poesía transgresiva y temáticas surreales influyeron en la literatura y artes modernas, como el decadentismo y la generación beat. Rimbaud fue uno de los máximos representantes del simbolismo, tendencia dominante en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX que suele señalarse como el inicio de la lírica contemporánea.
