Book excerpt: Takao Kasuga is a bookworm. And his favorite book right now is Baudelaire's Flowers of Evil. While the young man may often be seen lost in thought as he rabidly consumes page after page, Takao is not much of a student. Actually when we are first introduced to the middle school teen, we find him sneaking some reading as he receives and F on a recent language exam. Nakagawa is known as the class bully. When she is not receiving zeros she is usually muttering profanities to those around her. While she doesn't care for books or their readers, she does have a thing for troublemakers. Takao may not be one, but having read over his shoulder a few times, she knows he is not very innocent. If anything he is bored and aware of it. Together, by chance, they shake up their entire rural community as Takao tries to break out of his shell in a random moment of passion and affection...not directed towards Nakamura. And contrary to Takao's predictions, the girl he was falling for, Nanako Saeki, responds by eventually accepting the bibliophile for who he is. Or at least, who she thinks he is.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the seventh volume of the Flowers of Evil readers are sent to a completely new time and locale. Takao and Sawa have been forcibly separated. Takao is now living in suburbs of the big city. His parents have new lives in a small apartment and their past for the most part has been forgotten. Now and then little cracks appear in that facade but for the most part they are playing their roles to become a normal happy family. Takao is in a new school; your average model student. And while he is just as awkward, Takao has made some friends and is even occasionally being asked to be social as a new high school student. Even more intriguing is the fact that Takao might have already found himself someone to open up to. Like Sawa this person can see that there is more to Takao than meets the eye. But in this case it is her who reintroduces him to literature.

Book The Flowers of Evil   Les Fleurs Du Mal  French and English Edition  Translated by William Aggeler with an Introduction by Frank Pearce Sturm

Download or read book The Flowers of Evil Les Fleurs Du Mal French and English Edition Translated by William Aggeler with an Introduction by Frank Pearce Sturm written by Charles Baudelaire and published by Digireads.com. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upon its original publication in 1857 Charles Baudelaire's "Les Fleurs du Mal" or "The Flowers of Evil" was embroiled in controversy. Within a month of its publication the French authorities brought an action against the author and the book's publisher claiming that the work was an insult to public decency. Eventually the French courts would acknowledge the literary merit of Baudelaire's work but ordered that six poems in particular should be banned from subsequent publication. The notoriety caused by this scandal would ultimately work in the author's favor causing the initial publication to sell out, thus prompting the publication of another edition. The second edition was published in 1861, it included an additional thirty-five poems, with the exclusion of the six poems censored by the French government. In this volume we reproduce that 1861 edition along with the six censored poems in an English translation by William Aggeler along with the original French. Rich with symbolism, "The Flowers of Evil" is rightly considered a classic of the modernist literary movement. Its themes of decadence and eroticism seek to exhibit Baudelaire's criticism of the Parisian society of his time. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and includes an introduction by Frank Pearce Sturm.

Download or read book The Flowers of Evil written by Charles Baudelaire and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-17 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we celebrate the bicentenary of his birth, Baudelaire's poetry continues to fascinate readers, not just in his native France but throughout the world. The Flowers of Evil (Les Fleurs du mal) is now considered to be a major work of modern poetry, breaking with a romanticism which, for half a century, had praised nature to the point of trivializing it. Baudelaire's vision aspired to an ideal world, the path to which is paved with suffering and misfortune, a vision that exercised a considerable influence on later poets such as Paul Verlaine, Arthur Rimbaud, Stéphane Mallarmé and T. S. Eliot. This new dual-language edition, with monochrome illustrations by various artists, has been specially produced to celebrate the bicentenary of the poet's birth.
