He prefers, to the coherence and the colors of the universe which the romantics celebrated, the incoherence and the half-tones of the hidden universe of the self.”Now readers can explore the meaning and significance of this and other critical evaluations in a rich dual-language selection of poems and prose extracts by ten great poets: Max Jacob, Léon-Paul Fargue, Jules Supervielle, Saint-John Perse, Jean Conteau, André Breton, Paul Eluard, Robert Denos, Henri Michaux, and Pierre Emmanuel.
