Illustrated with 20 photographs including 7 photographs by Man Ray 4 by Brassaï one each by Dora Maar Henri Cartier-Bresson and Rogi André as well as artworks by Max Ernst and the statue of a female character by Giacometti in which the writer saw the very emanation of the desire to love and to be loved in search of its real human object in its painful ignorance. André Breton offers a meditation on love at first sight and passion drawn from his fateful first encounter in 1934 with his future wife Jacqueline Lamba this woman was scandalously beautiful. Recalling the beginnings of their romantic relationship he reflects on chance and embarks on a rereading of their love story detecting all sorts of phantasmagoric signs analysing his experiences and feelings. He concludes with an open letter to their daughter Aube born in December 1935 which ends with these words: I want you to be madly loved. A masterpiece of Surrealist literature both an extension and opposite of Nadja which was published nine years earlier also considered an objectbook in the classic surrealist style interleaved with photographs by Cartier-Bresson Brassaï and Man Ray . It proves its own startling kind of existence in the real world being not just a book not just the record of an extraordinary love that between André Breton and the artist with whom he shared his life but an object inserted madly and really now in our world Mary Ann Caws Translators note Mad Love University of Nebraska Press 1987.
