Collected Poems

 

St.-John Perse.  

 

Bollingen: 1971. First edition. Hardcover in a jacket. Octavo. Shelf wear, tanning, and chipping along the edges of the jacket. A little wrinkling along the edges of the boards and the crown. One bump on the edge of the back board. Text is clean. 682 pages. Very good. 

 

For the fist time all of the English translations of the great poet/ diplomat are gathered in one book. Includes T.S. Eliot's translation of Anabase. The reader gets the original French on the verso with the translations on the recto side. 

 

"One law of harmony governs the whole world of things. Nothing can occur there which by its nature is incommensurable with man."
