5.0 out of 5 stars Genet's Hidden Gems, January 11, 2008

This review is from: Treasures of the Night: Collected Poems (Paperback)
So you like Genet? If you haven't accidentally come across this book of his poetry in French and English, you might not have ever known his poems had been translated--or worse, you might not have ever known that his poems existed. This is not a minor work; it stands with his novels.

The symbols are so dense that it seems you are reading one of his novels. In fact, the hero of Miracle of the Rose is the protagonist of one of these poems!

This is a rare treat, and it is rare to find a copy. Get it.
