 | Rimbaud by Graham Robb
It has long baffled his admirers why the legendary late 19th-century poet Rimbaud, who is something of a cult figure to the avant-garde, abandoned poetry at the age of 21. Because of the startling, passionate verse he was capable of even as a youth, this rejection is considered one of the tragedies of modern poetry. Instead of mourning the loss, this biography seeks to depict Rimbaud as a pioneer in his adult life, living a startling, passionate existence as an arms trader and explorer. It also reveals how themes of Rimbaud's poetry manifested themselves in the life he pursued after he left the literary scene. AUTHOR: Graham Robb
