A review by inesfsmonteiro
The Painter of Modern Life by Charles Baudelaire

2.0

I give this book two stars because I think it is a complete waste of money. I only read two of the three essays in this edition ("The Painter of Modern Life" and "From The Salon of 1859"), and I don't think these justify buying the book. The essays are very specific and I only used the first for a university essay. I believe I will not read the remainder piece ("The Life and Work of Eugène Delacroix"), for I have no specific interest in the subject nor do I think I will gain much from reading such a time-limited text.
