Description
Telegram from Mr. Austin to André Breton dated 4 February 1941.
Write to... Skira, Paulhan, Denoël, Péret, Mabille, Paalen, Matta, Francis, Tanguy, Seligmann, Ubac, and a few others. Do the shopping, sort out the affairs. Leave for the United States. These few pages taken from a notebook, these telegrams, constitute a snapshot of a pivotal moment in Breton’s life, in that winter of 1941 when he impatiently awaited being allowed finally to leave the south of France. [Atelier André Breton website, 2005]
