As rich, lively, and stimulatingly sensitive a book as the truly catholic lover of the arts could desire.- Publishers Weekly;

""A magnificent translation of Breton's collected pronunciamientos, 1924-53.""- New Yorker;

""The translations of the seminal precepts of the founder of the surrealist movement has long been overdue. In view of the intricacies of thought and language characteristics of Andre Breton's prose, Richard Seaver and Helen R. Lane's renderings are remarkably good.""- Anna Balakian, Sunday Review
