Hi Aaron,
Many congratulations on your translation and publication. Baudelaire must be fun to have a go at!
AP: "Baudelaire's "The Swan" (one of the greatest poems ever written)."
It is splendid, isn't it? Critics like to point out that "Le Cygne" is a pun. I just like to say this: "Le vieux Paris n'est plus. La forme d'une ville /
Change plus vite, helas! que le coeur d'un mortel."
Cheers,
John
