The first English translation of Yves Bonnefoy’s account of his
life as a traveler. Â The Wandering Life is a poetic
culmination of Yves Bonnefoy’s wanderings and characterizes the
final twenty-five years of his work. Bonnefoy was an ardent
traveler throughout his life, and his journeys in foreign countries
left a profound imprint on his work. The time he spent in Italy,
translating Shakespeare’s work in England, in universities in the
United States, in India with Octavio Paz, and more, affected his
poetry in discernible ways and inspired The Wandering Life.
Interweaving verse and prose—vignettes that range from a few
lines in length to several pages—this volume is a fitting
capstone to Bonnefoy’s oeuvre and appears in English translation
for the first time to mark the centenary of Yves Bonnefoy’s
birth. Â
