Sinopse
Características

The poems of The Flowers of Evil were written in Paris at a time of revolution and accelerating change - the beginning of mass culture, the rise of consumerism and the middle-class, the radical redevelopment of the city by Haussmann - and they provide many parallels with the malaise and uncertainties of contemporary capitalist societies. Jan Owens masterly translation captures all of this in a selection that includes many of Baudelaires best known poems - including those banned from 1857 edition - as well as some less familiar ones, with the volume leading up to his great long poem, The Voyage, and finishing with the much-loved sonnet Meditation.
