When the older brother runs off by himself, the younger brother begins roaming Hell's different landscapes in search of him. As he searches, the younger brother ruminates on their now fractured relationship: what brought them here? Can they find each other? Will their bonds ever be repaired?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the tradition of Virgil, Dante, Milton, Swift, Shelley, Joyce, Sarte, and especially Arthur Rimbaud, Pearson leads his speakers on a speculative, epistolary journey through the nether realm inspired by Christian beliefs and tradition. Drawing on the works of French Symbolists and the literary traditions of the American South, \u003ci\u003eA Season in Hell with Rimbaud\u003c\/i\u003e guides readers through an intimate rendering of one brother's journey to find his lost and estranged brother, perhaps recovering a part of himself in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDustin Pearson is the author of three poetry collections: \u003ci\u003eA Season in Hell with Rimbaud\u003c\/i\u003e (BOA, 2022), \u003ci\u003eA Family Is a House\u003c\/i\u003e (C\u0026amp;R Press, 2019), and \u003ci\u003eMillennial Roost\u003c\/i\u003e (C\u0026amp;R Press, 2018).
