New Directions's edition was among the first to be published in the U.S., and it quickly became a classic. Rimbaud's famous poem \"The Drunken Boat\" was subsequently added to the first paperbook printing. Allen Ginsberg proclaimed Arthur Rimbaud as \"the first punk\" -- a visionary mentor to the Beats for both his recklessness and his fiery poetry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This new edition proudly dons the original Alvin Lustig-designed cover, and a introduction by another famous rebel -- and now National Book Award-winner -- Patti Smith.","brand":"New Directions Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51495572734263,"sku":"9780811219488","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/9926\/1239\/files\/imageloader_bcc758a9-0436-465e-a26e-9d05c328eaa8.jpg?v=1766613030","url":"https:\/\/shop.queerbooks.com\/products\/season-in-hell-the-drunken-boat","provider":"Philly AIDS Thrift @ Giovanni's Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
