More about the book

Exploring the theme of existential crossroads, Yves Bonnefoy's "L'Arrière-pays" delves into the quest for authenticity and the fear of missed opportunities. The poet navigates a labyrinth of experiences, drawing from diverse inspirations such as Asian deserts and Armenian churches, while reflecting on the intensity of childhood memories. Written with visionary grace, this work serves as a spiritual testament to art, philosophy, and poetry, enriched by a new preface and three essays that examine the tension between idealism and the acceptance of our finite nature.
