Consisting of three original publications in a single volume, this English language edition of Baudelaire’s poetry contains the complete text of The Flowers of Evil (1861), the twenty-three poems of ‘Wreckage’ (1866), several miscellaneous poems, and all fifty prose poems of Paris Spleen (1869). Poet-translator John E. Tidball succeeds in retaining the sense and tone of the original poems whilst observing their essential rhyme and prosody. Likewise for the prose poems of Paris Spleen, he has retained the essence of the original prose without destroying its inherent poetic quality.
