Complete Works

This volume brings together Rimbaud's poetry, prose, and letters, including The Drunken Boat, The Orphans' New Year, After the Flood, and A Season in Hell. The book divides into eight "seasons" - Childhood, The Open Road, War, The Tormented Heart, The Visionary, The Damned Soul, A Few Belated Cowardices, and The Wan with the Wind at His Heels - that reflect the facets of Rimbaud's life. Rimbaud's literary life was all but completed by the time he was eighteen; the Surrealists adopted him as one of their leading icons.
