A review by rockmeamadeus
Capitale de la douleur by Paul Éluard
4.0
What's a better introduction to surrealism than Eluard?
His poems are filled with imagery. Space, nature and their beauty are omnipresent in his writings, making them deeply visual. They celebrate love, melancholy, life, and always, beauty.
My favourite remains La Courbe de Tes Yeux, maybe one of the most vivid poems I've read. Space, day, senses, all of these themes flood this poem, making it colourful and unique.
One of my favourite French poetry collections and definitely a must-read.
