L'ens dessous l'admirable describes Jacques Brault's inward, spiritual journey, with its risk of despair and desolation. It is essentially a grim voyage. Alone, in no man's land, drawn by the inevitability of death, tempted by the thought of release, the poet descends a dark road. There he encounters the mysterious, mystical call of life. The ultimate triumph of l'admirable brings the poet back to the man in the city street who seeks an ancient, lost peace. An F.R. Scott Translation Award winner.
