Sinossi
Insieme all'osservazione complice e ardente della vita in ogni sua forma, dalla più perversa alla più pura, quello che non ha mai smesso di attirare Baudelaire, di ferirlo, di colmarlo di sofferenza e di voluttà, è stato lo spettacolo intimo e crudele della propria angoscia, della propria solitudine, del proprio immenso e immensamente insoddisfatto bisogno d'amore. La noia, lo spleen, non sono atteggiamenti snobistici o estetizzanti, ma simboli esatti e spaventosamente sinceri della condizione esistenziale di un uomo profondamente attaccato alla vita, che tuttavia non ha né potuto né voluto sottrarsi alla certezza di essere un escluso, un disadattato, un oggetto di incomprensione e di scherno.

After reading Baudelaire, I suddenly find myself wanting to smoke cigarettes and say very cynical things while donning a trendy haircut.

It is the only book of poetry that has had such a lasting effect on me. It is a monument unlike any other. When I immerse myself in it, I feel the sensations of a descent into catacombs and those of a mystical elevation. Then, weeks later, still echo in my ears in deep echoes the dizzying verses of " Leggi tutto

I read Les Fleurs du Mal many years back, but it is still within me. Just a few words about this beautiful, sometimes nightmarish, masterpiece. What do you expect to feel when reading Charles Baudelaire ? Nothing, I expect, falsely innocent, but superior free-flowing dream sequences of surrealism. I Leggi tutto
When my wife is beside me I'm in my second childhood. But when she's gone shopping, I amble absently around the house doing the things that must be done - vacantly, like one of Baudelaire's ghoulish old Sept Veillards - and that poem is for me the cornerstone of this work. I read it when I was sevent Leggi tutto
Luego de leer “Las Flores del Mal”, debo admitir que me cuesta mucho ejercer una crítica (la palabra me demasiado suena fuerte) o una reseña sobre este libro mítico, debido a mis pobres conocimientos sobre poesía. Es más, recuerdo que cuando tuve que analizar poesía durante mi intento de estudio de Leggi tutto
Here's a recent essay on Baudelaire from the trusty, always-interesting online mag The Millions: http://www.themillions.com/2013/04/th... So as to try to follow that, I've got to disclose a bit of an embarrassment. Baudelaire was, for me, the kind of poet only certain kinds of people liked. By this
Superlative. Thrilling. Sensual. Naughty. Macabre. Joyous. Liberating. Essential. Poetry for the reluctant poetry reader, i.e. me. (A little distracted here listening to Belle & Sebastian’s Write About Love which I finally acquired. Hence the choppiness). Great translation. Don’t care about reading Leggi tutto
Dear Charles, I’m flattered to be your muse, I really am. How many women can say they’ve inspired a genius to write poems about them, poems that will be read and loved hundreds of years from now? You have immortalized me in perfect rhymes, and thanks to you I shall always be remembered as a flower of Leggi tutto

Meanwhile the rabble ruled by body Pleasures, thankless beasts overburdened Build toward a bundle of remorse Leggi tutto
