Arthur Teboul’s call to reclaim poetry. — Le Figaro

Poems, facsimiles, photographs, contributions: a multi-faceted work to relive the experience of Arthur Teboul’s poetic chamber.

Compared to the works of Vian, Prévert, Ferré, Higelin, or the prose poems of the surrealists Arthur Teboul has been reading since adolescence, The Overflow garnered enthusiastic acclaim from both the press and readers, becoming a true bestseller. To accompany the release and transform the solitary practice of minute writing into a collective game, Arthur Teboul continued the Overflow experience through meetings with volunteer poetry enthusiasts, each tête-à-tête resulting in the writing of a poem.

One year after this notable first publication, Arthur Teboul, now often referred to as “first and foremost a poet”, releases The Address, a rich and composite volume, bringing together 250 new poems as well as facsimiles, photographs, illustrations, interviews, and contributions, he documents the extraordinary experience of the consultation chamber and continues the reflection, begun in his first work, on the deeply collective nature of poetry as he conceives it. Like a manifesto for a poetic life.

• With over 26K copies sold within a few months, The Overflow not only reached the top poetry sales in 2023 but also became a true bookstore phenomenon. Combined with the paperback sales, The Overflow sold more than 40K copies in just over a year.
• The Address sold 7K copies since its release in March 2024.
