Book Description
Apollinaire (1880-1918) was a French poet, playwright, short story writer, novelist, and art critic of Polish-Belarusian descent. He is considered one of the foremost poets of the early 20th century, and one of the most impassioned defenders of Cubism and a forefather of Surrealism, both terms he is credited with coining. His play The Breasts of Tiresias (1917) is one of the earliest Surrealist literary works. He worked as a journalist and art critic for Le Matin, L'Intransigenat, Mercure de France and Paris Journal, amongst others, and in 1912 cofounded Les Soirees de Paris, an artistic and literary magazine. Two years after being wounded in WWI, Apollinaire died in the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918 aged 38. Le poete assassiné (1916) is a collection of connected short stories which, in disguised form, tell Apolinaire's own story. Reprinted from an English translation with a biographical note of 1923 which includes four illustrations by André Derain and a portrait of the author by his friend André Rouveyre.

Book Description
In 1960 a mysterious car crash killed Albert Camus and his publisher Michel Gallimard, who was behind the wheel. Based on meticulous research, Giovanni Catelli builds a compelling case that the 46-year-old French Algerian Nobel laureate was the victim of premeditated murder: he was silenced by the KGB. The Russians had a motive: Camus had campaigned tirelessly against the Soviet crushing of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, and vociferously supported the awarding of the Nobel Prize to the dissident novelist Boris Pasternak, which enraged Moscow. Sixty years after Camus' death, Catelli takes us back to a murky period in the Cold War. He probes the relationship between Camus and Pasternak, the fraught publication of Doctor Zhivago, the penetration of France by Soviet spies, and the high price paid by those throughout Europe who resisted the USSR.

Book Description
The great German Romantic poet Friedrich Hölderlin’s spirit infuses this gorgeous cycle of poems that sing of the loves and devastations of our times Each hymn in Nathaniel Tarn’s new collection The Hölderliniae is a love song to the Poet of Poets, Friedrich Hölderlin?— the German Romantic poet-philosopher who spent the last thirty-six years of his life sequestered in a carpenter’s tower in the south of Germany. Tarn speaks through Hölderlin and Hölderlin speaks through Tarn in an act of spiritual and lyric possession unlike anything else in contemporary poetry. The French Revolution—which Hölderlin supported passionately until the Reign of Terror—illuminates our war-torn, ecologically precarious age, as the failures of our age recall past tragedies. Line after line carries Hölderlin’s hope in an ideal of a poetry that can englobe all the mind’s disciplines and make a universe of its own.
