Rimbaud in London

in 1873 poet Arthur Rimbaud moved to London (where he actually lived longer than he lived in Paris) from Paris with his married lover, poet Paul Verlaine...there they wrote poetry, drank, flaunted their relationship, fought, and sporatically taught French to the English. I made it a point to seek out the places Rimbaud had lived, like me, as a foreigner. To walk in his shoes down the same streets, connected by words and visions yet separated by over a hundred years...

I wish I could just hear one or the other and not both speaking at once. So as not to make it confusing to understand.

Interesting places-- where they lived, spent time, etc.
