Excerpt from Paul VerlaineThe works of great artists are silent books of eternal truths. And thus it is indelibly written in the face of Balzac, as Rodin has graven it, that the beauty of the creative gesture is wild, unwilling and painful. He has shown that great creative gifts do not mean fulness and giving out of abundance. On the contrary the expression is that of one who seeks help and strives to emancipate himself. A child when afraid thrusts out his arms, and those that are falling hold out the hand to passers-by for aid; similarly, creative artists project their sorrows and joys and all their sudden pain which is greater than their own strength.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

About the Author Stefan Zweig (1881-1942) was an outstanding Austrian novelist, playwright, journalist, and biographer whose work became very popular in the US, South America, and Europe especially between the 1920s and 1930s. In 1904 he earned his doctorate degree in philosophy at the University of Vienna. Throughout his life he remained a pacifist, and instead of becoming a soldier at the start of World War I, he worked in the Archives of the Ministry of War. He became friends with notable people in history, including Romain Rolland, Sigmund Freud, and Arthur Schitzler. Among his most famous writings are Beware of Pity, Chess Story, and his memoir The World of Yesterday.

Worth an afternoon By Mark Statman This is an interesting little book, more for the intersection of Zweig's sensibilities with Verlaine than for much on Verlaine itself. If Verlaine is a poet you like (as I do), this book is worth an afternoon. If you don't know Verlaine, start elsewhere, because this won't give you enough of the poetry to understand how important Verlaine's poetry is.
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. the great writer of obsession By F. McGavran Paul Verlaine is more an appreciation of the poet in the tradition of Alfred Kazin’s On Native Ground than an in depth literary biography. Zweig, the great writer of obsession, considers Verlaine’s relation with Rimbaud with almost 19th century detachment and circumspection. Several poems are reproduced in French, but the editor only provides a translation of “Art Poétique,” the only poem which Zweig analyses in any detail. Although this biography assumes the reader is familiar with Verlaine’s work in French, it is a good introduction to Verlaine for the general reader and an illustration of the theme of obsession that drove his biographer’s fiction.
