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

Firstly, I found it interesting that the author's name was not really Blaise Cendrars, pseudonym of Frederic-Louis Sauser, and that he was not born in France, and that his entire life experience was made up. Hence, I guess some authors yearned for attention through their illusions about turning their life into an adventure that others may find it out of the ordinary and interesting.
As for the poetry, Cendras tries to portray his life in movement from place to place, describing his own experience through the long journey to Montmartre. I really enjoyed the way Cendrars used metaphors that made the poetry even more interesting, and also the usage of repetition that putted emphasis into some main parts of the poetry.
