This edition brings together his extraordinary poetry and more than a hundred of his letters, most of them written after he had abandoned literature. A master of French verse forms, the young Rimbaud set out to transform his art, and language itself, by a systematic disordering of all the senses, often with the aid of alcohol and drugs. The result is a highly innovative, modern body of work, obscene and lyrical by turnsa rigorous journey to extremes.Jeremy Harding and John Sturrocks new translation includes Rimbauds greatest verse, as well as his record of youthful torment, A Season in Hell(1873), and letters that unveil the man who turned his back on poetry.

Sodom and Gomorrah / Marcel Proust

Public ISBD Titre : Sodom and Gomorrah Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Marcel Proust ; John Sturrock ; Christopher Prendergast Editeur : London [England] : Penguin Books Année de publication : 20032002 Collection : Penguin classics Importance : xii, 561 p. Présentation : couv. ill. en coul. Format : 20 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 0-14-118034-X Note générale : Translation from French of: Sodome et Gomorrhe (first published 1921-1922). This translation originally published: London: Allen Lane, 2002. Langues : Anglais Catégories : LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:828 English literature Index. décimale : 843.912 Résumé : In this fourth volume, Proust’s novel takes up for the first time the theme of homosexual love - male and female - and dwells on how destructive sexual jealousy can be for those who suffer it. 'Sodom and Gomorrah' is also an unforgiving analysis of both the decadent high society of Paris and the rise of a philistine bourgeoisie that is on the way to supplanting it. Characters who had lesser roles earlier on now reappear in a different light and take centre stage, notably Albertine, with whom the narrator believes he is in love, and the insanely haughty Baron de Charlus.
