Sinossi
"I fiori del male" (1857) è uno dei pochissimi libri di poesia sistematici e originali. Esprime l'inquietudine infinita e inappagabile di un'anima davvero straordinaria, che si muove ansiosa fra la carne e lo spirito, tra l'autentica fede cristiana e lo sconforto più terribile. L'opera rappresenta, inoltre, un punto di riferimento necessario per chiunque ami, studi e pratichi la poesia.

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, Charles, I shall always be remembered as a Leggi tutto
This is Poe for grownups. Lusty, edgy, and melodically intoxicating. Baudelaire's poems in French are delivered alive, kicking and beautiful as new babes in these English versions from James McGowan's capable hands. I was not surprised to learn this translator is a poet. He has the ear for rhythms.
