Deeply pessimistic yet full of yearning, tender yet savagely self-mocking, Laforgue has a unique voice and vision which nonetheless mark him out as one of the founding fathers of modernism. Like Baudelaire before him, he was determined to face up tothe ugly and decadent as well as the conventionally poetic aspects of himself and the world about him. His greatest achievement, the posthumous 'Derniers Vers' (1890), was the first complete French volume of free verse. The brilliance of his imageryknows no limits either of propriety or of reason, and the verbal inventiveness is breathtaking. Laforgue expands the technique of poetry almost explosively, for every register of French is used, from the highest to the lowest.
