Paperback. Etat : Very Good. This authoritative edition of Baudelaire's "Complete Verse" contains "Les Fleurs du mal" (1861), the first great modern work of poetry and one of the few books of poems to become an international bestseller, with "Nouvelles Fleurs du mal" (1868), "Les Aepaves" (1866) and all of Baudelaire's other poetry in verse. The French text is given at the head of the page, while Francis Scarfe's scrupulous and inventive prose translations appear at the foot, making this an ideal edition both for the advanced student and the general reader wishing to tackle the French original with a reliable prose prompt to hand. The companion volume, "The Poems in Prose", contains Baudelaire's prose poems ("Petits Poemes en prose", 1869) and the short novel "La Fanfarlo" (1847), an "extravaganza" written in his early twenties. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardback. Etat : New. Baudelaire's prose poems were written over many years and published in magazines between 1855 and his death in 1867. Francis Scarfe's translations reflect a lifetime's passion for Baudelaire's work and a deep understanding of it. The appeal of 'this beautiful book', he says in his introduction, 'lies in its wide range of subjects, its variations of tone and mood, its great variety of presentation and above all in its psychological subtleties. It shows the poet at the height of his powers, totally uninhibited in his expression of wonder, tenderness and compassion'. Francis Scarfe has appended an early prose extravaganza, the delightful short novel "La Fanfarlo" (1847), which has much in common with the poems. The companion volume, "The Complete Verse", contains all Baudelaire's poetry in verse, from "Les Fleurs du mal" (1861) to his occasional poems and translations.
