A Flutist and a Poetess

Arts & Literature

“Multilingual poet Nathalie Gaillot takes us with her on a lyrical journey through the seasons of a great love and its afterlife, with imagery drawn from the streets of New York and Paris, baroque theater and medieval tales, from the mysterious wildness of rivers and skies to the no less mysterious banality of the airport departure lounge. These thirty-five short poems are presented here in both French and English, in translations by the author, which beckon the willing reader towards an additional journey—every bit as captivating—into the world of languages and their histories.”
