Trans-Siberian Prose and Little Jeanne De France by Blaise Cendrars

The poem that we read today in class, was one of the most wonderful pieces of literature I've read so far. The way how the author, Blaise Cendrars (which is not the authors real name), has written the poem and described his trip in the train is very interesting. He has seen so much things and so many cities during his voyage! Another interesting detail that I noticed while reading the poem today was that he has used a lot of contrast in the poem. Once he talks about beautiful and romantic things, he immediately skips to some really dark and scary details i.e. he mentions love and death one following the other.
