The Dream in the Orchard

THE DREAM IN THE ORCHARD! In a series of thirty-five long poems, the masterful French writer here rejects the "real" world, and immerses the reader in a series of images taken from ancient mythology and fantasy. Christian Souchon has rendered his brother's verse into a marvelous series of images, presented on flanking pages in their outstanding French originals along with marvelously evocative English-language translations. Illustrated throughout. MICHEL GALIANA (1933-1999) wrote novels, poetry, essays, and criticism. His brother, Christian Souchon, is a translator with the international organization, OECD.
