Book Description
Enduring icon of creativity, authenticity, and rebellion, and the subject of numerous new biographies, Arthur Rimbaud is one of the most repeatedly scrutinized literary figures of the last half-century. Yet almost thirty years have elapsed without a major new translation of his writings. Remedying this state of affairs is Rimbaud Complete, the first and only truly complete edition of Rimbaud’s work in English, translated, edited, and introduced by Wyatt Mason. Mason draws on a century of Rimbaud scholarship to choreograph a superbly clear-eyed presentation of the poet’s works. He arranges Rimbaud’s writing chronologically, based on the latest manuscript evidence, so readers can experience the famously teenaged poet’s rapid evolution, from the lyricism of “Sensation” to the groundbreaking early modernism of A Season in Hell. In fifty pages of previously untranslated material, including award-winning early verses, all the fragmentary poems, a fascinating early draft of A Season in Hell, a school notebook, and multiple manuscript versions of the important poem “O saisons, ô chateaux,” Rimbaud Complete displays facets of the poet unknown to American readers. And in his Introduction, Mason revisits the Rimbaud myth, addresses the state of disarray in which the poet left his work, and illuminates the intricacies of the translator’s art. Mason has harnessed the precision and power of the poet’s rapidly changing voice: from the delicate music of a poem such as “Crows” to the mature dissonance of the Illuminations, Rimbaud Complete unveils this essential poet for a new generation of readers.

En 2060, à la télévision, Ray Katzinger, le patron mégalomane de Zehus entreprise, présente l'ultime étape de son projet Homo Deus : faire « naître » une IA consciente et évolutive, munie d'un corps de synthèse aux propriétés biomécaniques humaines. Il lui faudra près de 50 ans pour se transmuter lui-même, devenir le grand Zehus lumineux entouré de ses anges de la mort, et enfin donner corps à sa plus grande création... En 2122, à Redsalt Canyon, la bataille fait rage entre la communauté des puiseurs, les habitants de la vallée et les IA, plus ou moins humanoïdes, qui attaquent le village. Et la lutte fratricide pour le pouvoir entre Vittorio et Sylvio va atteindre son point de non-retour. Le jeune Joshua traverse le désert en portant une petite fille sur ses épaules. Dans ce qu'il reste de Los Angeles, il s'apprête à retrouver Namdak et Azul, le robot géant, pour découvrir toute la vérité sur ses origines, enfouie derrière les portes monumentales d'un temple bouddhiste protégé par une armée de moines... La gigantesque bataille entre les moines, guidés par un lama de pierre et d'ambre, et les anges électriques sera homérique. Suite et fin d’une saga spectaculaire pour « Elecboy », la fantastique mini-série postapocalyptique et transhumaniste de Jaouen Salaün. Son scénario est servi par un dessin réaliste saisissant et des couleurs aussi spectaculaires que le final épique de cette série d'anticipation au souffle rare et aux thématiques très contemporaines.
