Gascoyne, David

Poetry

Oxford University Press

One of Britain's most distinguished and longest-lived poets still writing, David Gascoyne now offers us this new collection of all the poems he wishes to preserve in a single volume. Superceding the outdated Collected Poems published in 1965, this volume contains numerous previously uncollected poems. Taken together, these poems establish Gascoyne as one of the key figures of the surrealist movement and of the 20th-century literary world. Gascoyne also includes an Introduction in which he reflects back over his long career as a poet.

A short survey of surrealism

City Lights Books

Gascoyne's membership of the Surrealist movement and his association with its leading members - among them Andre Breton, Paul Eluard, Max Ernst and Salvador Dali - placed him in an ideal position to witness and record the development and significance of its foremost artists and writers. "A Short Survey of Surrealism" is not merely a history of the birth and growth of the movement but also a thorough analysis of the main ideas associated with it.

<p>The Collected Journals 1936-42 cover the years when the young David Gascoyne lived in Paris. Lawrence Durrell, George Barker and Henry Miller were early friends and he was actively involved in the surrealist movement with Andre Breton and the poet Paul Eluard. The journals give a full account of these years: his personal struggle and despair as world war loomed, his complex relationship with the English author Antonia White and his return to London and enlistment as an actor with E.N.S.A. Written in a period when he was producing some of his finest work, these journals illuminate and complement the poetry and serve to reaffirm Gascoyne as a major voice of the twentieth century.</p>
