This French volume collects the works of Arthur Rimbaud in one book. It generally presents his rhymed poems from adolescence, the prose of Une Saison en enfer and the experimental pieces of Illuminations, giving a full picture of how his style moved from strict form toward freedom. Editorial notes in editions of this kind often help readers follow the order and background of the texts. It is a useful single-volume way to read the complete poetic achievement of a writer who stopped publishing before he was twenty-one.
