Like Bits of Wind: Selected Poetry and Poetic Prose, 1974-2014

Více o knize

Pierre Chappuis, a notable yet underrepresented figure among French-language poets, explores profound themes of landscape, phenomenology, and the essence of life. This collection showcases a wide range of his work, including pioneering prose and succinct verse, reflecting his unique stylistic duality. His poetic prose features a sinuous style enriched with parenthetical thoughts, while his poetry resembles haiku, often culminating in thought-provoking titles. Celebrated in Switzerland, Chappuis's writings convey a passionate inquiry into the nature of perception and existence.
