Surrealist Women : An International Anthology

Penelope Rosemont has assembled nearly 300 texts by 96 women from 28 countries. She opens the book with a summary of surrealism's basic aims and principles, followed by a discussion of the place of gender in the origins of the movement.
Though surrealism has often been viewed as a male-dominated movement, women (many more than the few well-known artists such as Lenora Carrington and Frida Kahlo) have been integral to its development.
