Widely regarded as one of the creators of prose poems, Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891) was also a forerunner of the Surrealists. The works in this excellently translated collection, written by the author when he was between 15 and 20 years old, became a rallying point of the poetic avant-garde during the late nineteenth century throughout Western Europe and the United States.

Arthur Rimbaud, einer sehr wortgewaltiger und bis heute vielgelesener Dichter Frankreichs, leitete mit freien Versen und einer umfassenden Revolte gegen die Tradition die lyrische Moderne ein.
