Description
BRETON (André). *Les Vases communicants*. Paris, Éditions des Cahiers libres, 1932. In-12, burgundy half-chagrin, illustrated cover (Madelain). First edition.
Press copy on ivory-coloured Omnia vellum paper.
A copy enhanced by a signed autograph dedication to Raymond Roussel, in which one can sense the great admiration Breton held for the recipient. Following on from the convulsive beauty evoked by Breton in *Nadja*, the poet now speaks of unalterable beauty: To Raymond Roussel, the Great Hypnotist, whose *Nouvelles Impressions d’Afrique* demonstrate once again that unalterable beauty is this woman who burns and bleeds.
Edges rubbed, cover detached.
