Here on a vivid canvas is the turbulent
Paris of the 1830's, and its colorful coterie
of poets and artists. Here, too, are many
of the roots of the dark influences of
Fleurs
du Mal,
the charnel house, Dandyism, the
revolt against romantic love and the indus–
trial world. Dr. Starkie has used great skill
and talent in her portrait of that flamboy–
ant "wolf man," Petrus Borel.
$5.00
All of the sparkle, freshness and magic of
the beloved Andalusian poet are presented
in this bilingual collection of over seventy
of his poems, selected and edited by his
distinguished brother, Francisco Garcia
Lorca, and D. M. Allen. New Classics
