| | 1. |  | Nadja
from Grove Press
Price: $10.40
Customer Review:
I'd like to think I'm more of a fan of surrealism than anybody else, but even Surrealism has its ugly side. And I would say this particular ugly side is fairly easy to view in Breton's most popular love story.
What is the ugly side of surrealism? Too much incoherence. Although not knowing... more info

| | 3. |  | Mad Love (French Modernist Library)
from Bison Books
Price: $11.96
Customer Review:
I found it fairly difficult to make it through most of this book. I should add, difficult yet rewarding. The first few sections reminded me of "Nadja" with their seemingly meaningless description of mundane activities. As I went through the book I realized, as I did with "Nadja," that these opening... more info

| | 4. |  | Constellations of Miro, Breton
from City Lights Publishers
Price: $15.35
Customer Review:
I could not make it through the first chapter of this book. I am not an English teacher, but the run-on sentences and atrocious sentence structure drove me crazy! The author tries to provide a political context for the Constellations, both paintings and poetry. However, he jumps from year to year... more info

| | 6. |  | Anthology of Black Humor
from City Lights Publishers
Price: $12.89
Customer Review:
breton's eulogy of surrealist revolt is basically incarnated in this book, which is a collection of insane and eccentric (particularly lacenaire, murderer and poet) figures who, through absurd humor and surrealistic flights of the fantastic, cast serious (sometimes dangerous) doubts on the validity... more info

| | 8. | [no image] | Magnetic Fields
from Serpent's Tail
Customer Review:
I discovered this book at Arizona State University's, Hayden Library when I was in school in 1993 and it totally changed what I thought about literature. Its absolutely intoxicating freedom of creation was like nothing I had ever read except maybe Arthur Rimbaud. This book, I believe, points in the... more info

| | 9. |  | Arcanum 17 (Green Integer)
from Green Integer
Price: $11.01
Customer Review:
Here is Breton exploring landscapes that remind him of where he is in relation to humanity and all that is dear to him. He has left a 'failed' relationship behind in Paris, and begins a final chapter in 'Surrealist Imagery' with a new found love in Canada. The underlying heartbeat of this book is... more info
