Sensual, macabre, joyous and liberating, The Flowers of Evil, or Les Fleurs du Mal, is a beautifully debauched reflection on dreams, sin, life, and death. With subjects ranging from travel to drugs, sex to faith, sleep to contemplation, Baudelaire finds new beauty in the most sinister and corrupt of situations. His morbid and nightmarish Romanticism was completely unique: cynical and bleak, but also inspiring. The book was highly controversial upon its release and Napoleon III’s government prosecuted Baudelaire for "an insult to public decency".

"Questa è la storia di un amore vissuto in mare, tra le onde, il vento ed il sole sulla pelle. Un amore che non chiese di sbocciare. Un amore che vi voglio raccontare..." È così che inizia la raccolta di poesie che descrive una storia d'amore nata per caso su di una spiaggia, tra due persone provenienti da due mondi diversi e nonostante le loro diversità questo amore perdurerà nel tempo nonostante tutto.

"L'autore è regista del suo scrivere, del suo saper trasformare ricordi in purezza poetica... Ammalia l'indole dei suoi pensieri, siano sentimenti d'amore anche sensuale, o sentimenti affettivi familiari. Leggere è osservare lo spirito che lo impregna di stupore, di ansia, di rimpianto, di acuta malinconia ma di un perfetto insieme con i sogni che sempre inseguono la sua realtà!" (dalla prefazione di Mariella Mulas).

The dramatic romance was a poetic form particularly favored by Robert Browning. This collection of 25 poems includes many of the poet's most celebrated efforts in this genre. Each of these poems is essentially a monologue or imagined conversation by a character recalling a life-changing event. The particular occurrence may be related to war (Incident of the French Camp), love (The Last Ride Together), murder (Porphyria's Lover), or even a humorous fable (The Pied Piper of Hamelin.)

Una de las obras más célebres del poeta Pablo Neruda. "Me gusta cuando callas porque estás como ausente. Distante y dolorosa como si hubieras muerto. Una palabra entonces, una sonrisa bastan. Y estoy alegre, alegre de que no sea cierto." Reseña: "Neruda significa un hombre nuevo en la América, una sensibilidad con la cual abre todo capítulo emocional americano. Su alta categoría arranca de su rotunda diferenciación." Gabriela Mistral

"Your judging eyes interpret quickly with assurance upon the view, Yet what they tell you is not always true, Below our outer shield with structure and mind beats a heart honest and true, You cannot judge a person by view, Only through love can you understand."

Of Love and Desire is a rich collection of love poems written over a lifetime, capturing its many forms: from rapture, infatuation and urgency to sorrow, heartache and disillusion. Poetry was de Bernières' first and greatest literary love, a passion evident in the musicality and emotion of his poems, which are full of stories and the truth of lived experience.

A contrasting collection of light and dark, love and heartache, loss and gain, peace and war, hope and despair. Don't fear the darkness, there are always the guiding words of the poetic outlaw to shine a light and find us. Even when shadows are closing, and imposing thoughts are chasing. We find a safe space, to keep fear at bay until the brightness of a new day.

You already know Mr. Darcy—at least you think you do! The romantic hero of Pride and Prejudice, Darcy initially insults and ignores the witty heroine but eventually succumbs to her charms. It’s a classic enemies-to-lovers plot and one that has profoundly influenced our cultural ideas about courtship. But what if this classic isn’t just a grand romance but a horror novel about how scary love and marriage can be for women? In The Darcy Myth, literature scholar Rachel Feder unpacks Austen’s Gothic influences and how they have led us to a romantic ideal that is halfway to being a monster story.

"Diese Lyrik macht den Leser reich" - Gedichte aus 25 Jahren. Ulrike Draesner hat ein helles Ohr für Zwischenräume und "subsongs", die Lieder unter den Liedern - Stimmen, die man gemeinhin nicht hört. In "hell & hörig" zeigt sich das ganze Können der Dichterin: Gedichte aus 25 Jahren, sinnlich, gedankenreich und zugewandt. Souverän werden traditionelle lyrische Formen aufgegriffen, naturwissenschaftliche Kenntnisse integriert. Polyglott, polyamorisch, zeitgenössisch ist Draesners Poesie, deren Originalität sich auch im Umgang mit fremden Sprachen beweist.

Diese Liebesgeschichte in unvollkommenen Versen erzählt vom Straucheln, Verlieren, vom Lieben und von Selbstzweifeln. Für jeden Menschen sind das die Begleiter, die mal mehr, mal weniger ein Stück des Lebens mit ihm gehen. Dabei hinterlassen sie ihre Spuren, im Herzen und auf der Seele, die manches Mal nicht mehr verheilen. Wären unser Herz und unsere Seele für alle Menschen sichtbar, offenbarten sie sowohl Dunkelheit als auch Licht, könnten verstörend sein und auch ermutigend. »Mit jeder Tür, die sich schließt, öffnet sich sogleich eine neue Tür«.

In 1966, just two weeks after the IRA blew up Nelson's Pillar in O'Connell Street, Dublin, Eddie McGrath is knocked down and killed by the airport bus near the spot where the Pillar used to stand. His death turns his 17-year-old daughter, Nuala, into an orphan. She never knew her mother, Gertie, at all, and when she looked into her father's things she found items of her mother that deeply disturbed her....

Der Dichter France Prešeren (1800–1849), im Ausdruck Klassizist und Romantiker im Geist, steht unbestritten an der Spitze der slowenischen Literatur. Als Visionär, getrieben von Hoffnung und Verzweiflung, schrieb er die meisten seiner Gedichte in den 1830er Jahren und hob die slowenische Poesie auf Weltniveau. Im Zentrum seiner Poesie stehen die Liebe, existenzielle Not, Nationalgefühl und poetisches Schaffen, doch auch seine satirische Seite ist nicht zu vernachlässigen. Die kosmopolitische siebte Strophe seiner Zdravljica ist heute die slowenische Hymne und könnte durchaus auch die Hymne der Vereinten Nationen sein.

Despite William Shakespeare being regarded as the most significant figure in the Western literary canon, relatively little is known about his early life and his later ‘lost years’. Even the exact date of his birth is uncertain. 23rd April generally accepted to be the date of his birth, could be a scholarly mistake amplified by the coincidence of it also being the date of his death. His iconic status now spans global literature and stems directly from the magnitude of his plays, both tragedies and comedies, and his poetry which is often cited as some of the greatest love poetry ever written.

Sweet Confession

Die berühmten 154 Sonette des weltbekannten Dichters William Shakespeare: Inhaltlich mit dem übergeordneten Thema Liebe an die Sonette des Italieners Petrarca angelehnt, jedoch als englische Sonette in der Form abweichend, gehört dieser Gedichtzyklus zu den Klassikern der Weltliteratur. Neben Liebe geht es u.a. um das Älterwerden und Eifersucht. Die Sonette 1-126 richten sich an einen jungen Mann ("fair boy"), der ab dem nächsten Sonett von einer dunklen Gegenspielerin, der "dark lady", abgelöst wird.

Este poemario sabe a mentiras bajo una palmera, a dolor del que marca, a lágrimas dulces, a noches sin dormir, a corazón abierto. El conjunto perfecto de sentimientos para olvidar a alguien. Escribimos para escupir dolor hasta que escupimos tanto que la se nos queda seca y ya no queda más que el folio en blanco. En este libro sucede exactamente eso. Estuve escribiendo hasta que esa persona dejó de importarme. Y entonces me di cuenta de que lo había logrado, de que ya no la necesitaba: cuando ya no tinta nada.
