«Les Planches courbes» is the poetry collection by Yves Bonnefoy, published by Gallimard in paperback (132 pages, in French).
Poetry collection originally published in 2001 and hailed as one of Yves Bonnefoy's major books. The title refers to the curved planks of the ferryman's boat trying to advance between the two banks of the river, of dream and of life. It includes «La pluie d'été», a sample of a voice at once assertive and fragile, restless and serene.
This volume belongs to the Poésie/Gallimard collection, under the nrf imprint, and was published on 29 May 2003.
Recommended for readers of contemporary French poetry and for students of French literature.
Yves Jean Bonnefoy was a French poet and art historian. He also published a number of translations, most notably the plays of William Shakespeare which are considered among the best in French. He was a professor at the Collège de France from 1981 to 1993 and is the author of several works on art, art history, and artists including Miró and Giacometti, and a monograph on Paris-based Iranian artist Farhad Ostovani. The Encyclopædia Britannica states that Bonnefoy was ″perhaps the most important French poet of the latter half of the 20th century.″
