Selected Poems
by Francis Ponge
Edited and with a preface by Margaret Guiton. Translated by Margaret Guiton, John Montague, and C.K. Williams.
"The deftness and creativity manifested in the translation do justice to one of the major works of contemporary French literature." — Jean-Jacques Thomas
Through translations by two major contemporary poets and a scholar intimate with the Ponge canon, this volume offers selections of mostly earlier poetry — Le parti pris des choses, Pièces, Proêmes, and Nouveau nouveau receuil — as representative of the strongest work of this modern French master who is recognized as one of the finest French poets of his time.
