    Weird and Highly Influential Poet.
  

*by J***K on Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2016*

Glad you do not have to fill in all the blanks to post a review.  This is a book of poetry, with some letters of Rimbaud's and some historical background on the poet included.  Rimbaud was a strange and highly influential poet who appears to have stopped writing poetry about the time he turned 20.  He led a wild and odd life -- the editor calls him a combination of avarice, morality, and gullibility -- a bad combination.  But as a poet he was revolutionary, helping found both free verse and the prose poem.  Not surprisingly, his poems are often hard to follow -- they sometimes read like Dylan's "Tamborine Man," and Dylan himself acknowledged his debt to this French poet.  You might want to start out with "The Drunken Boat" to get a flavor of his writings and move on to his slightly more conventional material such as "A Season in Hell."  If you like mind-stretching poetry, you'll like this book

    A Unique Voice but Difficult to Like
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2022*

Rimbaud’s oeuvre is typically divided Into three stages: adolescent revolt, visionary and descent into a secular hell. A savant who composed revolutionary poetry at the age of sixteen, after the age of twenty Rimbaud stopped writing verse and became an arms dealer in Africa.While I acknowledge the striking imagery of the poems and see how he inspired beatniks like Ginsberg, I admit I stumbled over his proclivity for profanity and blasphemy. He’s somewhat different than a poet like Baudelaire since he deliberately pens provocative condemnations of the Catholic religion as the reason behind many of his poems.I’m by no means a believer, at least not in a traditional sense, and I recognize that the Catholic Church’s political power in late nineteenth century France led to a hatred that few secularists would share today, but I’m not one for deliberately stoking hatred of other’s beliefs.Perhaps, if I had better appreciated the visionary poems and understood how Rimbaud foresaw a new direction, I’d have a more positive impression. But for me his visionary poems were bleak and depressing. I do plan on rereading him at some point to better appreciate his corpus.A unique book, just one I personally didn’t like.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great Adolescent Genius
  

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2019*

I had never read any of Rimbaud's writing, but this blew my lid off. Great writing in both the poems and letters. I also bought the film "Total Eclipse" which was a great companion. Talk about a boy genius.
