I just finished reading Guy N Smith's THE WOOD and noticed that you had this on your wishlist. Not sure if you know that GNS' own website has this book available as a free download: http://www.guynsmith.com/page5.html

Mind you: It is far from being his best. ;-)

All the best

You can't wrong with Lautreamont's Maldoror; a masterpiece which significantly inspired surrealism; Andre Breton (Earthlight, The Magnetic Fields, Anthology of Black Humor) is best known as the movement's formest theorist, but is one of its finest poets too; as is his friend Benjamin Peret (Death to the Pigs), considered perhaps the surrealist par excellence. Women in the movement have been overlooked until recently; the fiction and poems of Leonora Carrington (The Seventh Horse) and Joyce Mansour (Screams) is some of the greatest work the movement has to offer, and Penelope Rosemont's Surrealist Women anthology. Also of note is Gellu Naum (Zenobia, My Tired Father) from Romania, and Philip Lamantia Bed of Sphinxes, America's premier surrealist. The movement is still active here; the Chicago group, founded in the '60's by Franklin and Penelope Rosemont, has kept surrealism's spirit alive, and produced much interesting work.
