Book Synopsis

A collection of Valéry's autobiographical writings

Moi presents a selection of Paul Valéry's writings that portray his inner life as an artist. Included are several short autobiographical pieces in which Valéry talks about his early childhood, his adolescence, his military experience, his travels, his poetry, and his acquaintances. The volume also contains selections from the Valéry-Gide and Valéry-Fourment correspondence, an interview with Valéry entitled "The Avenues of the Mind," and Pierre Feline's "Memories of Paul Valéry."

The Collected Works of Paul Valéry, the first collected edition of the writer in English, features new translations, the original French on facing pages for poetic works, and editorial notes.
