Description
PÉRET (Benjamin). *De derrière les fagots*. Paris, Éditions surréalistes, 1934. In-8, paperback. First edition. One of 500 copies printed on bouffant vellum, featuring a beautiful autograph dedication signed by the author: To Georges Goldfayn, may his beard grow, may his braces slap against his bottom, may his trousers tear from top to bottom for having asked me for a dedication on my return from a journey! With my friendship all the same, Benjamin Péret 6 Sept. 56. The recipient of this delightful dedication, Georges Goldfayn, belonged to the younger generation of Surrealists who gravitated towards André Breton in the 1950s; it was in this way that he became friends with Benjamin Péret. Sun-faded cover.
