Under the Dome: Walks with Paul Celan Rendang epic verse with ambitious scopeJean Daive Paul Celan (1920 1970) is considered one of Europe's greatest post World War II poets, known for his astonishing experiments in poetic form, expression, and address. Under the Dome is French poet Jean Daive's haunting memoir of his friendship with Celan, a precise yet elliptical account of their daily meetings, discussions, and walks through Paris, a routine that ended suddenly when Celan committed suicide by drowning himself in the Seine.
