COLLECTIVE ORIGINAL EDITION published on the occasion of the thirtieth anniversary of René Crevel's death.

LIMITED EDITION of 150 numbered copies on Rives vellum paper, all signed by the illustrators, with the exception of Wols and Dominguez, who died before publication.

Surrealist, Dadaist, communist, excluded, reinstated, committed, enraged: "born rebellious as others are born with blue eyes," René Crevel was all of these at once. An actor in Tzara's Coeur à gaz, it was gas he chose again, this time for his suicide, at 35 the author of La mort difficile no longer had the heart to carry on. These "Feuilles éparses" form a tribute published on the 30th anniversary of his death and bring together thoughts and poems, all largely illustrated by those who were his friends.

"I am looking for the street, the boulevard, the abyss that will tempt me enough to throw myself headfirst into it."
