Philippe Jaccottet is one of a group of poets who turned away from the Surrealists sometimes abstruse experiments with form in favor of a muted lyrical expression born of a quasi-fraternal bonding with the wonder of earth, light, water, sky. This lyricism is steeped in an ambiguous sense of our planet s vulnerability in this nuclear age. Jaccottet s work has now developed steadily over nearly four decades as Derek Mahon points out in his introductory essay. In themes and form it will not seem alien to English language readers, yet Jaccottet s voice is his own. The sensuous modulations of imagery, harmony, and mood are strangely moving and haunt the imagination."
