The First Manifesto of Surrealism - Goll Yvan

On 15th October 1924, André Breton published his now-famous Manifeste du surréalisme.

Less widely known is Yvan Goll's manifesto of surrealism, the movement's very first document, published 14 days earlier on 1st October 1924.

This volume explores the distinctive character of Yvan Goll's surrealism, less fanciful than Breton's, rooted in the fundamental nature of reality, rather than the world of dreams and chance.

The First Manifesto of Surrealism is No 2 in the Publisher's Choice series, a collection of slim volumes selected by our publisher at the Cambridge Queer Press.
