Pickpick

Yesterday, I've read this poetry collection by Paul Verlaine.
In the French poems, I was in awe of all this rich vocabulary used to describe the female/male genitals (mostly lost nowadays).
It was overall an interesting read, but I preferred the first part, Femmes. The introduction was very helpful to put things into context, and the illustrations by Michael Ayrton were a nice addition to this collection of poems. Between a pick and a so-so ;)
