To celebrate the exhibition I Am The Last Woman Object at Camden Art Centre, we offer Nicola L.'s reading list compiled by Christophe and David Lanzenberg.
NADJA is a Surrealist romance, and has come to be known as a book which defined that movement's attitude towards life. With its blend of intimate confession and sense of the marvellous, NADJA weaves a myterious and compelling tapestry of daily life as seen through a magical perspective. Combining autobiographical fact with memory and imagination, Breton spins one of the most unusual love stories in modern literature.
