La sourde oreille

"L'âge d'or" collection. 32nd booklet in the collection.

"Luc Decaunes, who was a schoolteacher in Paris, is also a radio personality, journalist, and festival organizer, all while having an interest in music and song. He is primarily known for his literary work, as the author of numerous collections of poetry, novels, and several anthologies. He associated with the Surrealists, notably Louis Aragon, Tristan Tzara, and Paul Éluard, whose son-in-law he became by marrying his daughter Cécile. In 1936, he founded the magazine Soutes, which aimed to unite oneiric, erotic, and revolutionary impulses in a single language. From his first collection published in 1938, Decaunes would appear as a "fire thief," but his poetry, throughout his work, would remain that of life and experience. Luc Decaunes directed the "Clefs pour" collection at Éditions Seghers in the 1970s."
