invertebra discovered 52 months ago- Aiming to be the definitive online resource for Baudelaire's masterwork of French literature, fleursdumal.org is a very promising supervert (one of my all-time favorites sites) project.

- Des Esseintes had a specially bound volume of Baudelaire's poetry made for his own private use. What book of poetry would you want to have made for your very own? Would it be bound in flesh, inscribed with blood? Or drawn on your tongue in Chartreuse?

- Charming prose about impiety, suicide, disembowelment, necrophilia, Satan, and incest. Fun for the whole family.

Spleen I am like the king of a rainy land, Wealthy but powerless, both young and very old, Who contemns the fawning manners of his tutors And is bored with his dogs and other animals. Nothing can cheer him, neither the chase nor falcons, Nor his people dying before his balcony. The ludicrous ballads of his favorite clown No longer smooth the brow of this cruel invalid; His bed, adorned with fleurs-de-lis, becomes a grave; The lady's maids, to whom every prince is handsome, No longer can find gowns shameless enough To wring a smile from this young skeleton. The alchemist who makes his gold was never able To extract from him the tainted element, And in those baths of blood come down from Roman times, And which in their old age the powerful recall, He failed to warm this dazed cadaver in whose veins Flows the green water of Lethe in place of blood. Charles Baubelaire (Trasnlated by William Aggeler)

- FleursDuMal.org Fleursdumal.org is dedicated to the French poet Charles Baudelaire (1821 - 1867), and in particular to Les Fleurs du mal (Flowers of Evil). The definitive online edition of this masterwork of French literature, Fleursdumal.org contains every poem of each edition of Les Fleurs du mal, together with multiple English translations -- most of which are exclusive to this site and are now available in digital form for the first time ever.
