Some links to some reviews and stuff

Paul Claudel and Victor Segalen reviewed here.

In high school because I was crushing on the French Surrealists, I thought I really should know and read Claudel.  Never happened.

"L'homme et la femme sont images de Dieu dans leur corps et dans leur âme. Quand donc l'homme et la femme s'aiment, c'est une image de Dieu qui aime une autre image de Dieu".

Paul Claudel

Stephen Burt on Robert Creeley: What Life Says to Us.

Man, I got to get me some more better Creeley.

The Rain

Love, if you love me,
lie next to me.
Be for me, like rain,
the getting out

of the tiredness, the fatuousness, the semi-
lust of intentional indifference.
Be wet
with a decent happiness.

Robert Creeley
