What we're reading today, in solidarity with the people of Iran:
#IranianPoets #PoetryInTranslation #MiddleEasternPoetry #NoMoreWar
book on wooden tablesurface next to two Lindt chocolate bunnies (partially cut-off at upper edge of image). The book cover is in blues and whites. Its lower half is covered in water color waves. The title and author in blue lettering above it in a white "sky." The translator written on the waves in white lettering.
French text on lefthand side, English on righthand side (same on the next two images): le coer est sans doute une histoire au plus un bruit certains diront : murmure quelque chose a parlé tout bas de recommancer les vagues no doubt the heart is a story maybe a roar some say : murmur something whispered so the waves begin again
elle était belle ta maladresse comme ton idée du poème pense á la voix pense au petit á la foi animale surtout : la répétition nous sauvera your clumsiness was beautiful like your idea of a poem think of voice think of small animal faith above all: repetition will save us
finissons-en : pas de message quelques lésions seulement la nuit les marteaux une patience insoupçonnée je recommençais pourtant á trouver de bons titres let's finish it: no message only some lesions night hammers a trusting patience I begin again to find the right words
"no doubt / the heart is a story / maybe a roar"
What a wonderfully mysterious duet these poems & their translation make in WHILE PERCIVAL FELL by Tania Langlais, tranl. Jessica Cuello (Tiger Bark Press, 2025)! 😍

In bed her heavy resilient hair
—a living censer, like a sachet—
released its animal perfume
and from discarded underclothes
still fervent with her sacred body's
form, there rose a scent of fur
Baudelaire, Les Fleurs du Mal
Trans. Richard Howard
40. A Phantom (II The Perfume)

"Man—a free man—always loves the sea
...
—who has sounded to its depths the human heart?
and who has plucked its riches from the sea?—
so jealously they guard their secrets, both!"
Baudelaire, The Flowers of Evil translated by Richard Howard
