"Mad Love" has been acknowledged an undisputed classic of the
surrealist movement since its first publication in France in 1937.
Its adulation of love as both mystery and revelation places it in
the most abiding of literary traditions, but its stormy history and
technical difficulty have prevented it from being translated into
English until now.
"There has never been any forbidden fruit. Only temptation is
divine," writes Andre Breton, leader of the surrealists in Paris in
the 1920s and '30s. "Mad Love" is dedicated to defying "the
widespread opinion that love wears out, like the diamond, in its
own dust." Celebrating breton's own love and lover, the book
unveils the marvelous in everyday encounters and the hidden depths
of ordinary things.
