Still Together: the Collected Poems of Yves Bonnefoy
About This Novel
This collection of poems embodies the essence of Bonnefoy's works and is also the last collection of poems he wrote during his lifetime. It is a confession written by him to his relatives, friends and readers. It uses deep dreams and speculative dialogues to show the sweetness and maturity he experienced in his "night wandering" at the end of his life. This book, together with "The Movement and Stillness of Dufau", represents Bonnefoy's writing achievements. As a translator and art historian, Bonnefoy explores the nature of art such as "translation", "music" and "photography" in a poetic way in this collection of poems. There are also poems that recall memories of his early life and are full of nostalgia. The collection of poems embodies Bonnefoy's intellectual writing characteristics, but the way he develops his speculations is not abstract, but with the help of a large number of perceptual images and dramatic situations.
