Henri Droguet's savvy derangements of language call for a super-savvy translator, and found that prestidigitator in Alexander Dickow. With neologisms, internal-intestinal rhymes, arcane diction, a fierce wit, Droguet creates dreamscapes at once linguistically fraught and true to his North Atlantic habitat. His song, he says in "Soliloquy," is "spasm hemorrhage/ epiphanic and black." These are poems of mortal intensity.

Autorenporträt
Henri Droguet was born in 1944 in Cherbourg, Normandy. He studied history and literature at the University of Caen. Until 2004, he taught literature in Saint-Malo, where he has lived since 1972. He has published some dozen collections of poetry, most with Gallimard; the latest, Grandeur nature, was published by Rehauts. He has also published two books of prose; the most recent, with Fario Editions, is called Faisez pas les cons! When he is not reading, he writes; when he is not writing, he gardens, he wanders, he runs to the opera house, he sails from Saint-Malo to Lorient, or else out toward English Cornwall, the Scillies, Ireland.
