Enduring icon of creativity, authenticity, and rebellion, and the subject of numerous new biographies, Arthur Rimbaud is one of the most repeatedly scrutinized literary figures of the last half-century. Yet almost thirty years have elapsed without a major new translation of his writings. Remedying this state of affairs is Rimbaud Complete, the first and only truly complete edition of Rimbaudâs work in English, translated, edited, and introduced by Wyatt Mason.
Mason draws on a century of Rimbaud scholarship to choreograph a superbly clear-eyed presentation of the poetâs works. He arranges Rimbaudâs writing chronologically, based on the latest manuscript evidence, so readers can experience the famously teenaged poetâs rapid evolution, from the lyricism of âSensationâ to the groundbreaking early modernism of A Season in Hell.
In fifty pages of previously untranslated material, including award-winning early verses, all the fragmentary poems, a fascinating early draft of A Season in Hell, a school notebook, and multiple manuscript versions of the important poem âO saisons, Ãī chateaux,â Rimbaud Complete displays facets of the poet unknown to American readers. And in his Introduction, Mason revisits the Rimbaud myth, addresses the state of disarray in which the poet left his work, and illuminates the intricacies of the translatorâs art.
Mason has harnessed the precision and power of the poetâs rapidly changing voice: from the delicate music of a poem such as âCrowsâ to the mature dissonance of the Illuminations, Rimbaud Complete unveils this essential poet for a new generation of readers.

The poetic genius of Arthur Rimbaud (1854â1891) blossomed early and burned briefly. Nearly all of his work was composed when he was in his teens, before all trace of his literary life disappeared with him into the African desert of his later years. During the century following his death at thirty-seven, Rimbaudâs work and life have influenced generations of readers and writers. Radical in its day, Rimbaudâs writing took some of the first and most fundamental steps toward the liberation of poetry from the formal constraints of its history, and now represents one of the most powerful and enduring bodies of poetic expression in human history.
Wyatt Mason studied literature at the University of Pennsylvania, Columbia University, and the University of Paris. His first translation, Pierre Michonâs Masters and Servants, was a finalist for the French-American Foundation Translation Prize. He has translated five books by Michon, including the forthcoming The Origin of the World. His current projects include a translation of Arthur Rimbaud's complete correspondence, and a new edition of Danteâs La Vita Nuova, also for the Modern Library. His writing has appeared in The Nation, the Los Angeles Times, and many other publications.
