Jean Genet (French: [ʒɑ̃ ʒənɛ]; 19 December 1910 – 15 April 1986) was a French novelist, playwright, poet, essayist, and political activist. Early in his life he was a vagabond and petty criminal, but he later took to writing. His major works include the novels The Thief's Journal and Our Lady of the Flowers, and the plays The Balcony, The Maids and The Screens. In 1949, when Genet was threatened with a life sentence after ten convictions, Cocteau and other prominent figures, including Jean-Paul Sartre and Pablo Picasso, successfully petitioned the French President to have the sentence set aside.

The French poet, Arthur Rimbaud

Stéphane Mallarmé, the visionary French symbolist poet, revolutionized poetic language and form. His enigmatic verses, exploring themes of art, beauty, and the elusive nature of meaning, continue to inspire avant-garde movements and shape the trajectory of modern poetry.

Funny design for fans of French poet Arthur Rimbaud (1854–1891). Inspired by the iconic Thank You shopping bag.

He was born in Montevideo as Isidore Ducasse, was a French national, son of a consular officer. His father sent him to Paris to attend high school. After that, he studied at École Polytechnique. Young Isidore liked to read Charles Baudelaire and Edgar Allan Poe. He died at the age of 24 but published two collections of poetry (Poésies and Les Chants de Maldoror). The books did not make any impact, but almost half a century later, he was discovered by surrealists and praised for his innovations. The legend continues.

French writer Françoise Sagan wrote her first novel "Bonjour, tristesse" (Hello Sadness) in 1954. It was an overnight sensation in Paris. Dealing with topics such as depression, customs and teen angst, it was deemed by some as scandalous and is now considered a cult book.
