'Les Fleurs du mal' (1861) was the first great modern work of
poetry and one of the few books of poems to become an international
bestseller. This edition contains all of Baudelaire's poetry in
verse with Francis Scarfe's scrupulous and inventive prose
translations at the foot of the pages. Together with his detailed
and authoritative introduction, this presentation makes an ideal
edition both for the student and for the general reader who wishes
to tackle the French original with a reliable prose guide at hand.
The companion volume, 'Paris Blues', contains Baudelaire's prose
poems ('Le Spleen de Paris' or 'Petits Poemes en prose') and the
short novel 'La Fanfarlo' (1847), a charming extravaganza written
in his early twenties.
