From its auspicious beginnings in the summer of 1966 to the
present, the Chicago Surrealist Group-and the Surrealist Movement
in the United States, which grew out of it-have continued to foment
an exhilarating whirlwind of revolt while playfully igniting the
sparks of Poetry, Freedom and Love in the crucible of the
Unfettered Imagination. In so doing, it has brightly illuminated
the pathways of absolute divergence that define the intrinsically
anarchist trajectory of the surrealist adventure. Drawing on the
full range of U.S. surrealist publications, from the original
journal Arsenal/Surrealist Subversion to the very latest millennial
communique from the front lines of the ongoing battle against
miserabilism, this volume contains over 200 texts (more than two
dozen appearing here for the first time) by more than fifty
participants in the Surrealist Movement, making this the most
comprehensive, diverse and lavishly illustrated compilation of
American surrealist writings to have ever been assembled.
