About the Book

An Anthology of Verse originally released as a paperback and hardback in 2002. It includes a diverse range of work from a five year period as well as the specially commissioned collection 'Poesia Nueva' headed by the poem 'The Man of Stone', a tribute to T.S. Eliot. It was the most varied presentation of Edouard d'Araille's poetry by 2002 though it has been superceded by 'Words Can't Hold... - a Decade of Poetry' and recent volumes 'Love Immortal', 'Words of Mass Destruction' and 'Out of the Ghetto'. This book has been in print as a paperback for almost 17 years. It is now released for the first time as a Kindle ebook."This is technically fascinating and moving poetry." The Late Professor John BayleyNEW COLLECTION: Since his début collection 'Memories of the Future' (1997) was described by Professor John Bayley as containing "technically fascinating and very moving poetry", this contemporary English-language poet has been in constant activity, having published 11 further collections of his work by 2018, as well as appearing in numerous anthologies. Of particular interest to students of poetry will be his essay 'Shakespeare Lives - A Prefatory Postlude', which appeared in the volume 'The Poetry of Living Time' (2002).'EDITOR'S NOTE' TO THIS VOLUME: "The present collection of poetry by Edouard d'Araille includes works from earlier publications (written under his own name and pseudonyms) as well as those commissioned for this new work. It is hoped that the current volume provides a satisfactory cross-section of the range of his content and style, and that it will give pleasure to the widest and most varied audience of read-ers as possible - I am sure this was the intent of the author, else why write prose or verse at all? You will not find here the expression of one uniform sentiment throughout - no, rather more of a kaleidoscope of feelings and a spectrum of subjects and moments. At some times serious, at others humouristic, sometimes romantic and at others almost mystic - it is hard to describe the work of Edouard d'Araille in a polarized way. For the order and content of this work, I, the publisher, must take responsibility, though there was consultation throughout with the author. Beyond that, the words of the poems must speak for themselves, I can give no introduction."INCLUDES: Specially commissioned collection 'The Man of Stone' as well as a selection of mixed format verse like 'Nouveau Rimbaud', 'The Criminal' and 'The House in Chelsea'.EXTRACT 1: 'The House in Chelsea'"Well they must be wealthy, they live in Chelsea! -Their door is enormous.Their credit is healthy.Their settee is leather, their wardrobe is velvet- cocktails for breakfastand 'bifteque' for tea.I have not met thembut one day hope to, await introductions, to join "the club" -If the parakeet answers'good mourning, sar!'they say that is an omenthat paves the stair."My eels and mash havegone cold with my thinking, oh well, maybe the liquorcan heat them up;I turn to my wife whohas told me the storiesand think to myself 'midthe clatter and screams: "Why can't we be wealthyand live in Chelsea?- Why do we live inthe gutter South-East?Why can't we have grapesand a crystal decanteron a table veneeredin a burgundy lounge?"As I knock back my teathat is curdled and green, I dream words in my ears- 'good mourning, sar!'EXTRACT 2: 'Upanishad for the Departed'Sitting below, before the teacher, your soul is a state of the derelict -the doors are fallenfrom their jambs, windows smashed throughand the roof caved in.The day is broken, horizons are gone -the landscape is paintedin silence and black.The time of reconstruction is gone, your body cannot be built again, all we can pray for your re-surrection, - return in another life!- One of the most significant poets of recent years, Edouard d'Araille's poetry covers all themes and poetic forms.
