Les Fleurs du Mal (The Flowers of Evil) is his most famous work. In beautiful prose-poetry, Baudelaire expresses the fleeting, ephemeral, ever-changing nature of beauty in modern, industrializing Paris during the nineteenth century. His work influenced an entire generation of poets.Baudelaire rejects the notion that nature is supreme, the idea of the romantics and expressed by them in their writing and art. He considered the poem as a self-referential object. He was a slow and fastidious worker, often sidetracked by emotional distress and illness. It was not until 1857, when he was 36, that he published this book, the first and most famous volume of his poem.Baudelaire’s works touch on sex, death, wine, lesbianism, sacred and profane love, metamorphosis, melancholy, lost innocence, and the oppressiveness of society. He uses the sense of smell in his poems to evoke remembered feelings of the past.In 1847, at the age of 26, Baudelaire became acquainted with the works of Edgar Allan Poe who died two years later at age forty. He liked the bizarre and macabre Poe tales and poems. He felt that they expressed his own feelings. Baudelaire, like Poe, struggled with illness, poverty, and melancholy, believed in Saint Augustine’s notion of Original Sin, which plays a part in their writings, and felt that humans are not naturally good, but faulty, and therefore denounced democracy and the idea of progress. From 1847 to 1865, until two years before his death, Baudelaire used much of his time translating Poe's works, and his translations were praised. He also wrote two essays on Poe.Les fleur du Mal contains 54 translated poems. The first “Benediction,” expresses what has been said above about him. It begins:When by the changeless Power of a Supreme DecreeThe poet issues forth upon this sorry sphereHis mother, horrified, and full of blasphemy,Uplifts her voice to God, who takes compassion on her.“Ah, why did I not bear a serpent’s nest entire,Instead of bringing forth this hideous Child of doom!Oh cursed be that transient night of vain desireWhen I conceived my expiation in my womb! ### ⭐⭐⭐ El libro no resultó como esperaba. *by A***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 24, 2022* Esta version de Las Flores del Mal no es íntegra… si quieres el libro en todo su esplendor, esta no es la opción correcta. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great poetry *by P***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 4, 2020* but I still love Rimbaud better. It's worth a buy and read. Love French poetry. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/17327040-flowers-of-evil](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/17327040-flowers-of-evil) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
