A compelling read, well researched and written.

This biography is purely excellent. The author differs from most of Rimbaud's biographers by his thorough research which never seems to deviate in over interpreted significations. Rimbaud is presented as an individual not a myth, and that is in my view the most important testimony of the author's respect towards his subject. Rimbaud the myth has too often smothered the man who came to live and struggle in a colonised Africa in search of himself and in search of some hypothetical rapid income. I lost my first copy and I am delighted to have found this copy to re-read this very well written and knowledgeable work.
