Flowers of Evil by Charles Baudelaire
Baudelaire's Fleurs du Mal, which in successive editions contained all of his published poems, has opened new vistas for man's imagination and quickened the sensibilities of poets everywhere.
"He possessed, as it were, a profound intuition of the obstinate, amorphous contingency which is life.." -- Jean-Paul Sartre
Charles Baudelaire (1821-1867) is most famous for his groundbreaking collection of verse The Flowers of Evil, but his essays, translations, and prose poems have been equally influential.
