| | 1. |  | The Flowers of Evil (Oxford World's Classics) from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $11.16
Customer Review:
 Baudelaire's poetry is a potent brew of Poe's mystery/terror, Flaubert's realism, Byron's brand of romanticism and a touch Sade's sexual philosophy. Having said this however, I do not wish to say that Baudelaire's Fleur du Mal is derivative, far from it! In many ways, Baudelaire's poetry is like... more info

| | 2. |  | Les Fleurs Du Mal from David R. Godine Price: $12.89
Customer Review:
 This is exactly what I said in the title: a nice help, if you know something about the romance languages and are a beginner at French. For, as far as I can see the translation doesn't preserve rhyme or the rhythm of the original, yet it's not literal. It does provide semantic help if you're... more info

| | 7. |  | Complete Poems: Charles Baudelaire from Carcanet Press Ltd. Price: $26.05
Customer Review:
 This is by far the best translation of Baudelaire's Complete Poems. Not only is the translation achieved in rhymed, metered verse, but Martin captures the essence of this colossus of French poetry. Please ignore "Rosie" the naysayer below who seems to have a limited background in translation,... more info

| | 10. |  | Les Fleurs Du Mal (Pocket Classics) from Pocket (FR) Price: $9.95
Customer Review:
 I am not a writer, nor a critic. I am a mere reader who appreciates good works. This is one of my staple books, which I often reread and recommend to people who I feel might have the mind to appreciate genius. This is the best translation I know of and as a necessary feature of translated poetry, it... more info
