{"product_id":"9781908376404","title":"Selected Poems from Les Fleurs Du Mal","description":"The poems of The Flowers of Evil were written in Paris at a time of revolution and accelerating change - the beginning of mass culture, the rise of consumerism and the middle-class, the radical redevelopment of the city by Haussmann - and they provide many parallels with the malaise and uncertainties of contemporary capitalist societies. Jan Owen's masterly translation captures all of this in a selection that includes many of Baudelaire's best known poems - including those banned from 1857 edition - as well as some less familiar ones, with the volume leading up to his great long poem, 'The Voyage', and finishing with the much-loved sonnet 'Meditation'.","brand":"Arc Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47040032080112,"sku":"9781908376404","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781908376404_p0.jpg?v=1763620976","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781908376404","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
