About the author

After World War I, French poet and literary theorist André Breton began to link at first with Dadaism but broke with that movement to write the first manifesto of surrealism in 1924.

People best know this theorist as the principal founder. His writings include the Surrealist Manifesto (Manifeste du surréalisme), in which he defined this "pure psychic automatism."

Like all automatic writing, brilliant and garbage in equal measure

Like Marguerite Yourcenar's Fires, this is a work my sixteen year old self would have been obsessed with. And I can't fault it for that, even if it squeaks and pinches a bit, reading it as an adult. I had a very interesting time reading this. Definitely a highlight so far this year.

"Δώσε στα όνειρα που ξέχασες την αξία των πραγμάτων που δεν γνωρίζεις".

Un esperimento libero e matto in culo.

Vorrei rileggerlo in francese solo per apprezzare i giochi di parole e la componente musicale del testo.

Προσφέρεται για ανάγνωση ξέφρενης νύχτας τη συνοδεία κονιάκ, τσιγάρου και παγκακίου υπό το θολωτό τίποτα της Κυψέλης.

La verdad creí que me iba a gustar mucho únicamente porque Pizarnik hizo la traducción pero ahora veo que fue un pensamiento algo tonto.... No me gustó nadita:( pero rifada la Pizarnik con su traducción
Maybe el surrealismo no es lo mío y ya.

Klassieker in zijn genre. Over dromen als duistere toegangspoort naar andere werelden, over verbeelding en waanzin, over liefde en dood. Beklemmend en bevrijdend, rauw en poëtisch.
