About this title

Synopsis

Can love poetry be the site of a creative partnership? This book represents a foray into the love poetry of Jacques Roubaud, tracing a lifetime of writing from the ardour of first love to the pain of grief and loss. Roubaud’s poetry is brought into proximity with views from Freud, Lacan and Irigaray in original readings of his work.
