Surrealist Subversions: Rants, Writings & Images by the Surrealist Movement in the United States Book

Cultural Writing. Critical Essays and art. This volume contains over 200 texts by more than fifty participants in the U.S. Surrealist Movement, making this the most comprehensive, diverse and lavishly illustrated compilation of American surrealist writings to have ever been assembled. This anthology "supersedes the narrow and tiresome literary/artistic categorizations to which surrealism is usually assigned by critics, and situates it in the much broader context that surrealists themselves have always preferred: the revolutionary context" - from the Foreword by Franklin Rosemont. Editor Ron Sakolsky is the co-editor of two other Autonomedia anthologies: GONE TO CROATAN: THE ORIGINS OF NORTH AMERICAN DROP-OUT CULTURE and SOUNDING OFF!: MUSIC AS SUBVERSION/ RESISTANCE/ REVOLUTION also available from SPD.
