Notes
The title of Jacques Barron's memoir and history of the Surrealist movement (he was one of its founders) roughly translates to "From Year 1 of Surrealism to the End". The book's cover, a not atypically surrealist visual pun for that title, is by Brassai, who, while not a full-fledged Surrealist like his contemporary, Man Ray, came pretty close.
Other than the cover photo and a picture of the author on the verso, the book is all text.
