Poetry. Translated from the French by Katie Farris and Ilya Kaminsky. A poet whose work combines the centuries old Acadian tradition with contemporary French poetics, Guy Jean gives us here the work haunting, unforgettable lyricism. These poems are unafraid to play, but also give their reader a mythic sense of place and belonging. In gorgeous versions by Katie Farris and Ilya Kaminsky, English readers will discover the poet who has been called "present-day Villon."
