This dastardly little gem contains a little-known masterpiece of decadent and nihilistic verse, written by David Park Barnitz and originally published in 1901. A collection of unrelenting oblivionist poesy fit to take its place amongst the works of other macabre anti-luminaries such as Thomas Lovell Beddoes, Count Stenbock, or H. P. Lovecraft, this book will greatly appeal to fans of Gothic literature and constitutes a great addition to any collection of antiquarian poetry. Included in this two part anthology are such poems as: Ashtoreth, Parfait Armour, Opium, Sombre Sonnet, Languor, Ennui, Litany, Harvard, Pride, Song of Golden Youth, Mais Moi Je Vis La Vie En Rouge, Mad Sonnet, Hegel, Monotony, Scorn, The Grave, and many more. David Park Barnitz (1878-1901) was an American poet most remembered for this collection of decadent poetry. This rare book has been elected for modern republication because of its immense literary value, and is proudly republished here complete with a new prefatory introduction.
