Capitale de la douleur by Paul Éluard
QR code
"Capitale de la douleur" by Paul Éluard is a poetry collection published in 1926. This surrealist work, whose title translates to "Capital of Pain," emerged from a tumultuous period in Éluard's life involving his wife Gala and artist Max Ernst. The collection comprises four sections, blending earlier works with new poems that explore love, suffering, and poetic purity. Originally titled "The Art of Being Unhappy," it represents what scholars call a "poetic
autobiography," using universal language to allow readers to recognize themselves within its verses. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
