A stunning new translation of a neglected masterpiece by one of historyβs most celebrated writers.
Β
Ten years before Baudelaire published his masterpiece, The Flowers of Evil, the great poet penned the only prose fiction of his career: La Fanfarlo. The novella describes the torrid real-life affair the poet had with Jean Duval, a dancer whose beauty and sexuality Baudelaire came to obsess over. The outcome is a work of raw emotional power and a clear distillation of the Parisianβs poetic genius. As Baudelaire himself said, βAlways be a poet, even in prose.β
