Despite some poems being mandatory coursework for me I happily read through this whole collection. The tenderness and brutality combined with beauty and decay is something I find touching and heartfelt. His critique of the urbanisation of humanity is something we can still discuss to this day nearly two hundred years later.

Jak mám ve zvyku, vypsala bych sem nějakou ultraboží pasáž. Jenže to bych musela přepsat celou sbírku. ♥

Si algo puedo aportar a la conversación, es que definitivamente hay gran valor en leer estos poemas en su idioma original. Si bien esta edición, por Libros del Zorro Rojo, tiene un gran valor agregado por ser una edición bilingüe (conservando los poemas en su idioma original), la traducción de Jaime Siles deja que desear, pues toma muchas libertades de estilo que modifican el ritmo original que tan orgánicamente construye Baudelaire.

Sweeping survey of the human condition (and the feline's, in a couple of excerpts) that deserves reading as one unit first and isolated pieces after the fact.
