Read Now Download Now
A beautifully jacketed hardcover collection of verse by French-speaking poets from cultures across the globe, spanning the ages from medieval to modern. EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY POCKET POETS.

From the troubadours of the Middle Ages to the titans of modern poetry, from Rabelais and Ronsard to Aime Cesaire and Yves Bonnefoy, French Poetry offers English-speaking readers a one-volume introduction to a rich and varied tradition. Here are today's rising stars mingling with the great writers of past centuries: La Fontaine, Francois Villon, Christine de Pizan, Marguerite de Navarre, Louise Labe, Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Verlaine, Mallarme, Apollinaire, and many more. Here, too, are representatives of the modern francophone world, encompassing Lebanese, Tunisian, Senegalese, and Belgian poets, including such notable writers as Leopold Senghor, Venus Khoury-Ghata, and Hedi Kaddour. Finally, this anthology showcases a wide range of the English language's finest translators--including such renowned poet-translators as Ezra Pound, Marianne Moore, John Ashbery, and Derek Mahon--in a dazzling tribute to the splendors of French poetry.
