Description
Nadja, first published in France in 1928, is a foundational work of Surrealist literature that explores the author's relationship with a girl in Paris. This unique narrative is intertwined with forty-four photographs that form an integral part of the work.
The book presents a personal account of obsession and the blurring of reality, as the author navigates his life in the presence of this elusive figure. The photographs add an additional layer to the story, showcasing various 'surreal' people, places, and objects that inspire meditation on their existence or lack thereof.
This edition features a paperback binding and 192 pages, offering a concise and accessible introduction to Breton's influential work.
