Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A masterwork of poetic urban observation, The Stroller of Paris is Leon-Paul Fargue's luminous love letter to the city he wandered, savored, and immortalized in prose. Long unavailable in English, this book opens the door to a Paris now spectral and half-forgotten-where the boulevards echoed with cafe banter, jazz and politics collided in salons, and the ghosts of Baudelaire and Montmartre's bohemians still haunted the mist. Fargue was called "the stroller of Paris" not merely for his gait but for his gaze: intimate, encyclopedic, and electric. From the hidden depths of La Chapelle to the glitter of the Champs-Elysees, he guides us through arrondissements like a flaneur-philosopher-equal parts Proust and Apollinaire-seeking the soul of a city in every reflection, every voice, every shifting light. Translated with uncommon sensitivity by Rainer J. Hanshe, The Stroller of Paris is not just a book about Paris-it is Paris, in all its bygone splendor and raw humanity. An essential rediscovery for lovers of literature, history, and the art of the derive. A masterwork of poetic urban observation, The Stroller of Paris is Leon-Paul Fargues luminous love letter to the city he wandered, savored, and immortalized in prose.

Paperback. Condition: New. Nearly 100 years later, a landmark post-Symbolist poem receives its first English translationWhen published in 1928, Vulturnus represented a new direction in Léon-Paul Fargue's writing: a shift from the lyrical post-Symbolist melancholy of his early poetry to something more grandiose, dynamic and cosmic. This long prose poem weaves together philosophical dialogue, metaphysical meditation and mournful reminiscence delivered in a language that spirals into scientific terminology and Rabelaisian neologism. Jolted into a nightmare aboard a long-distance train journey, the author finds himself on a voyage that takes him from his hometown to other existences, accompanied by the fanfare of the planets and two companions-Pierre Pellegrin and Joseph Ausudre-who guide him to a terrestrial paradise in quest of a moment of eternity. This first English translation finally introduces an essential yet underrecognized 20th-century voice and includes an essay on the text by René Daumal, who declares that "Vulturnus suffocates me with its obviousness . I see behind Fargue the great frame of Doctor Faustroll."Léon-Paul Fargue (1876-1947) was a French Symbolist poet and essayist. He was a preeminent figure of the Parisian art scene and counted Marcel Proust and Maurice Ravel among his friends. Walter Benjamin called him "the greatest living poet in France.".…
