About: In this eclectic selection of forty-eight French poems -- including works by Villon, Voltaire, Baudelaire, Musset, Nerval, and Hugo, as well as lesser known poets such as d'Orleans, DuBellay, Prudhomme, Heredia, Coppee and Rollinat -- translator Kendall Lappin puts theory to the test: dispensing with rhyme in favor of strict adherence to metrics and diction.
