The poems in Rodin's Shadow peer into the lives of the great French sculptor's mistresses, dramatically giving voice to Camille Claudel, Gwen John and Rose Beuret, as well as Clara Westhoff, the neglected sculptress wife of Rilke who was Rodin's secretary. These are lives beset by passion, obsession and even madness, but also by devotion, as in the case with his long-term companion Rose Beuret, who Rodin finally married in the year they both died. A haunting, unique collection of poetry, steeped in art history, that shifts between rhyme and free verse.
