One of the great figures of modern French literature. Swissborn in 1887, but French to the core in spirit, Cendrars roamed the world for many years, a restless seeker who made life an adventure and his novels and poems the record of a neversatisfied appetite for human experience. As a young man he reached the Orient across Russia, and The Transsiberian, one of his finest long poems is included in this volume. Over the years, a number of Cendrars works were translated into Englishearly among them, in 1931, John Dos Passos brilliant version of Panama, or the Adventures of My Seven Uncles (reprinted in this collection)but all are now out of print here, so that this selection from the whole range of Cendrars is most timely. It has been prepared by Professor Walter Albert of Brandeis University, whose long introductory essay is the most detailed biographical and critical study of Cendrars now available in English. While the greater part of the selection is concentrated on Cendrars poetry (with the French text printed en face), there are also representative excerpts from the major novels and other prose books, as well as several essays, including impressions of Chagall and Picasso.
