Composed of 150 poems, with a title taken from Charles
Baudelaire's "Les Fleurs du Mal," and partly a response to the
poetry of Raymond Queneau, this collection explores Jacques
Roubaud's many poetic modes. He skips from the strict form of the
sonnet to the freedom of prose poetry without abandoning the
melancholy playfulness that has defined his lengthy writing
career.
A selection of Roubaud's best recent work, "The Form of a City"
describes not only Paris, but also its people, its writers (and
those of the Oulipo in particular), its monumental past, and its
unsteady response to change.
