This review is from: One Hundred and One Poems by Paul Verlaine: A Bilingual Edition (Paperback) In One Hundred And One Poems By Paul Verlaine the reader is introduced to the original French texts as well as to the English translations. Norman Shapiro does an excellent job at translating the sonorous tonalities of Verlaine's native vernacular. In this excellent volume Verlaine's best poems are exhibited to the eyes and minds of the weary world, and by his poetic genius Verlaine transforms alienation into a profound sense of brotherhood through the wistful cadences of his songs. I highly recommend this outstanding anthology to all lovers of true poetry.  Comment | Permalink http://www.amazon.com/gp/cdp/member-reviews/A121R15MRGT5GI/ref=cm_cr_pr_auth_rev?ie=UTF8&sort_by=MostRecentReview
