Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. 2472 Verlaine, by Joanna Richardson (read 11 Nov 1992) This is a 1971 biography of Paul Verlaine (born 30 March 1844 at Metz, died 8 Jan 1896 at Paris). He was a drunk, homosexual, and a poor excuse--but a great poet. This book quotes a lot of his poetry, but it is all in French! If I had been 'doing' the book right I'd have found an English translation of these poems, but I did not. After Verlaine's breakup with Rimbaud he returned to the Church, and died a Catholic death--though his life dripped with sin. I appreciated, in this day when homosexuality is so often condoned or even extolled, this book's very deprecatory attitude to Verlaine's homosexuality. But to read a whole book on a poet I can't read in his language anything he wrote seems not a good use of my time. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
