A legendary figure within the Surrealist movement, Robert Desnos
(1900-1945) has left a unique legacy as a poet of distinction, as a
'dormeur eveille revered by his fellow Surrealists, and as a free
spirit par excellence. In celebrating Denos's unique creative
voice, this book re-evaluates his prominence within and beyond the
Surrealist movement, reappraises his status as a poet, and sheds
new light on his contribution to the literary and cultural life of
his age. The essays in the volume reflect the ongoing vitality and
relevance of Desnos's poetry and the originality of his
contribution to the various other forms of expression in which he
excelled: Journalism, short stories, script-writing and
song-writing. Desnos's extensive writings on art and artists, his
active involvement in avant-garde film and his close associations
with a number of renowned painters are also addressed. This fresh
look at Denos's activities and contexts includes an interview with
the artist Georges Malkine's daughter, Fern Malkine-Falvey, and a
study of the memoirs of Desnos's wife, Youki. The volume closes
with a rare collection of journalistic writings by Desnos which
appeared in Le Soir in the late 1920s and have never appeared in
print since their original publication.
In 1912 the young Frederic-Louis Sauser arrived in France, carrying
an experimental poem and a new identity: Blaise Cendrars was born.
Over the next half-century, Cendrars wrote innovative poems,
novels, essays, film scripts and autobiographical prose. His
ground-breaking books and collaborations with artists such as Sonia
Delaunay and Fernand Leger remain astonishingly modern today.
Cendrars's writings reflect his insatiable curiosity, his vast
knowledge which was largely self-taught, and his love of everyday
life. In this new account Eric Robertson examines Cendrars's work
against a turbulent historical background and reassesses his
contribution to twentieth-century literature. Robertson shows how
Cendrars is as relevant today as ever before, and deserves a wider
readership in the English-speaking world.
