Více o knize

Paul Verlaine's later poetry, particularly in "Songs for Her" and "Odes in Her Honor," showcases a shift from his traditionally nuanced style to a more direct celebration of physical and emotional love. These works reflect the passionate relationship between a middle-aged man and two women, emphasizing musicality and experimentation rather than subtlety. While still retaining his characteristic lyrical quality, these poems boldly express desire and affection, offering a fresh perspective on Verlaine's poetic evolution.
