Best known in the United States as the mastermind of the Surrealist movement and as the author of the dream-logic fiction "Nadja," Andre Breton has always enjoyed in Europe the additional reputation of being a brilliant poet. Bill Zavatsky's and Zack Rogow's excellent translation of Breton's Earthlight (Clair de terre) introduces the English-language audience to the delights-and complexities-of Breton's amazing poetry. Written to friends and fellow Surrealists such as Pablo Picasso, Andre Derain, Robert Desnos, Francis Picabia, Pierre Reverdy, and Max Ernst, the poems in the collection date from 1919 to 1936, spanning Breton's involvement with Dadaism and his founding and development of Surrealism.
