Sheer Surreal Madness

wow! this is a superb collection of poetry and prose by the leader of the surrealist movement,everyones favorite Parisian(aside from Apollinaire)Andre Breton.this collection displays some simplly beautiful and hallucinatory writing.i think my favorite(which is hard to decide)is "choose life",a wonderful piece that cant help but inpire subjectivity and adveture.the intro is quite long but very well writen and extremely useful if you dont know that much about Breton and the surrealists.get it today! it kicks ass!
