Description
Charles Baudelaire, poète maudit, is the self-styled â,"Satanic manâ, whose collection THEâ,ˆFLOWERSâ,ˆOFâ,ˆEVIL (Les Fleurs du Mal) is marked by paeans to sexual degradation such as â,"The Litanies Of Satanâ, and â,"Metamorphosis Of The Vampireâ,. Baudelaire himself revelled in a life of filth, and revered as his poetic muse a diseased mulatto prostitute. THE FLOWERS OF EVIL is now presented in a brand new translation that vividly brings Baudelaireâ,"s masterpiece to life for the new millennium. This special ebook edition also includes Baudelaireâ,"s Satanic short story, â,"The Generous Gamblerâ,, plus an introductory essay by Guillaume Apollinaire, published for the first time in English.
