A Season in Hell and The Drunken Boat

Arthur Rimbaud

★★★☆☆ Read February 14, 2026

Rimbaud has flashes of incredible imagery that stick with you, but I often found myself lost in the poems, unsure what to make of them. Maybe it was the wrong book or the wrong moment, but I didn’t fully connect this time. I’m open to revisiting in the future because there’s clearly brilliance here, even if it didn’t fully click for me.
