Shocking, witty and always entertaining: a biographical survey of the principal Surrealists by one of the last surviving members of the movement, bestselling author and artist Desmond Morris
'A delight ... Morris writes with a pleasingly conversational tone and a dry humour and affection that undercuts the more preposterous behaviour described here … Juicy little nuggets litter the book'
The Times
'Gossipy, waspish, biased, score-settling and very entertaining'
Literary Review
'Uproariously funny … [Morris’s] anecdotes are all told with a dry but good-natured humour … these figures make for highly entertaining company'
The Spectator
'An exceptionally lively, crisply written, independent-minded survey of one of the most bizarre groups of misfits who ever lived'
