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.

These powerful poems, at...

The Real Subject is not exactly a novel and not really a poem, though it contains some verses and is not without characters.

He is, in fact, a unique geezer, whose trains of thought seem often on tracks without station or schedule. To move one to another of Jacob Delfon's turns of mind and twisted meditations requires, not fast, but careful footwork....
