According to Carol Rigolot, reading the work of Nobel Prize-winning
poet Saint-John Perse (1887-1975) is not unlike eavesdropping on a
telephone conversation in which only one side is audible. His poems
are antiphonal, and even polyphonic, works where interlocutors are
almost always reduced to anonymity. In this book, Rigolot analyzes
the poet's multiple strategies of dialogue, capturing his
conversations with a surprising range of people--from biblical
figures and ancient Greek and Roman authors to artists as diverse
as Dante and Shakespeare, Chateaubriand and Hugo, Audubon, Whitman,
Poe, Baudelaire, Verne, Mallarm(c), Gaughin, Rimbaud, Loti,
Claudel, Val(c)ry, Segalen, and Braque.
