This review is from: Gaspard de la Nuit (French Edition) (Paperback)
The book's thorough introduction offers valuable insight into this pivotal author, Aloysius Bertrand, and his contribution to the evolution of modern poetry. The prose poems themselves are beautifully translated, steeped with haunting images of the middle ages--sublime, brutal, and devilish at a turn. One clearly sees how Gaspard de la Nuit influences the prose poems of Charles Baudelaire (published as Paris Spleen). Altogether, this is a beautiful and significant book.
