Une saison en enfer by Arthur Rimbaud
QR code
"Une saison en enfer" by Arthur Rimbaud is an extended prose poem written and published in 1873. This enigmatic work chronicles a narrator's journey through personal damnation and hell, divided into nine parts of varying tone and clarity. Written amid Rimbaud's tumultuous relationship with poet Paul Verlaine, the poem explores themes of ancestry, delirium, failed poetic ambition, and ultimate transformation. The only work Rimbaud published himself, it captures a "terribly enigmatic" dialogue
between conflicting parts of the poet's identity, wrestling with the limits of poetry and reality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
