Description
Robert Desnos: A Surrealist's Poetry This extensive collection brings together nearly 300 poems by one of France's most influential writers of the 20th century, Robert Desnos. A key figure in the Surrealist movement, Desnos's work spans a wide range of styles, from youthful and humorous to anguished and surreal. The poems in this volume showcase Desnos's unique voice and perspective, moving from lighthearted material to full-blown surrealist explorations. The collection also includes some of Desnos's most notable work from the Nazi Occupation period, when he was an active resistor. This publication provides a long-overdue opportunity to experience Desnos's poetry in English, filling a significant gap in the literary canon.
