by (france) Andre Breton Et Al.
About This Novel
André Breton, a French poet, writer, and founder of Surrealism, led the trend of artistic creation that emphasized dreams, subconsciousness, and primitive impulses. He faced the "confusion of the human spirit" with subversive poetic language, and had a profound impact on later generations of literature and artistic creation. This book is the first Breton interview published in China. It contains the transcripts of sixteen interviews that Breton recorded for Radio France in 1952 at the invitation of reporters. In it, Breton talks about his personal past and experiences, looking back on the game of words, the movement to liberate the unconscious, the dream of fragmented sentence collage, his views on avant-garde poets and artists, and the story flows into a surreal spiritual adventure. Offering "a testimony to relive the burning years of Surrealism".
