Description: This anthology, the first of its kind in any language, displays the range and significance of women's contributions to surrealism. Letting surrealist women speak for themselves, Penelope Rosemont has assembled nearly three hundred texts by ninety-seven women from twenty-eight countries in Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, and the African diaspora.

Their works include poems, tales, dreams, essays of radical social criticism, inquiries into psychoanalysis, critical approaches to philosophical as well as topical problems, celebrations of the work of particular poets and painters, and several examples of surrealist games.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [471]-504) and index.
