Paris Peasant by Louis Aragon, Simon W. Taylor (Translator). From the Exact Change, " Paris Peasant (1926) is one of the central works of Surrealism, a work that helps define the movement itself; yet this is the first U.S. publication of Simon Watson Taylor's authoritative translation, completed after consultations with the author. Unconventional in form - Aragon self-consciously avoided any recognizable narration or character development - but fiercely lyrical, Paris Peasant is, in the author's words, "a mythology of the modern." The book uses the city of Paris as a framework, and Aragon interlaces his text with the city's ephemera: café menus, maps, inscriptions on monuments, newspaper clippings, as well as the lives of its citizens. A detailed description of a Parisian passage, nineteenth-century precursor to the mini-mall, and another of the Buttes-Chaumont park, are the great set pieces within Aragon's swirling prose of philosophy, dream, and satire. " The Surrealist Look: An Erotics of Encounter by Mary Ann Caws. Paperback - 368 pages Reprint edition (March 1999) MIT Press. "In The Surrealist Look, Mary Ann Caws examines the misogyny that ran rampant through surrealism. She also suggests that surrealism is descended from the baroque, another style of art that rejoiced in exaggeration. Whether you agree with Caw's ideas or not, The Surrealist Look is an interesting take on an unusual school of art." Also by Mary Ann Caws:
