Filled with devotion and lust, sensuality and eroticism, fevers and
overtures, these poems showcase some of the most passionate verses
in the French language. From the classic sixteenth-century love
sonnets of Louise Labe and Maurice Sceve to the piercing lyricism
of the Romantics and the dreamlike compositions of the Surrealists,
French Love Poems is the perfect, seductive gift for anyone who
makes your heart flutter. This collection includes poems by
Guillaume Apollinaire, Charles Baudelaire, Claude Cahun, Rene Char,
Marceline Desbordes-Valmore, Paul Eluard, Louise Labe, Stephane
Mallarme, Anna de Noailles, Joyce Mansour, Arthur Rimbaud, Paul
Verlaine, and many others; as well as translations by Mary Ann
Caws, Robert Duncan, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Denise Levertov, Ezra
Pound, Kenneth Rexroth, Frederick Seidel, Richard Sieburth, and
William Carlos Williams.
