Description:

This bilingual volume, with the French and English on facing pages, is a translation of a book of poems by René Char, a 20th-century French poet known for his work of great beauty. Fierce, lyrical, searching, Char is a gifted writer in whose poems we encounter a range of voices: those of a leader in the French Resistance, a visionary of his native Provence, an elegist, a lover, a mystic of the night, an evocative and at times riddling aphorist.
