Book Synopsis Rimbaud in Java by : Jamie James
Book excerpt: At eighteen, the French poet Rimbaud proclaimed: 'My day is done; I'm leaving Europe. The sea air will burn my lungs; lost climes will tan my skin.' Three years later, in 1876, he joined the Royal Army of the Dutch Indies and sailed for Java, where he promptly deserted and fled into the jungle.
