Calligrammes

Calligrammes is an exceptional collection of poetry.By the circumstances of its composition: in the middle of World War I and, for part, on the very front.By the emotional intensity that emerges from it: from the deepest despair to the most vibrant hymn to love.By the novelty of its mode of expression: the poem-drawing.When Apollo published its collection in April 1918, it had seven months left to live.
