The first volume of notes and reflections from one of Switzerland's most prominent and prolific men of letters. Seedtime-Jaccottet's notebooks-is an especially good introduction to this leading francophone Swiss author, containing the poet's observations of the natural world and his reflections on literature, art, music, and the human condition.

In this translation by Tess Lewis, English readers will finally be able to join this poet as we follow in his footsteps of fifty years ago and find the still-viable seeds of his delicate and tenacious verse.
