Quarto publisher's original blue boards printed and pictorially decorated in black on the spine and upper cover. 52 1 pp. A handsome copy very well preserved the binding is tight and the hinges are sound a bit of light mellowing to the spine panel the text-block mellowed as usual a very pleasing copy. FIRST EDITION AND A VERY SCARCE BOOK IN SUCH WELL PRESERVED CONDITION. Misfortunes of the Immortals is one of Ernst’s first illustrated books—a format that would become increasingly significant for him. Marking the beginning of his close friendship with French poet Paul Éluard the book pairs the semantic dislocations of Éluard’s poems with the visual disjunctions of Ernst’s recent collages. Ernst cut up wood engravings he found in books and magazines and pieced the fragments together to create strange new compositions. The uniform texture of the wood-engraved lines gives these images a disquieting seamlessness. To Ernst’s delight this effect was enhanced when the collages were printed photomechanically.

Illustrated with a frontispiece drawing by Salvador Dalí. Precious signed autograph presentation from Paul Eluard to René Char : « Exemplaire de mon ami René Char. Paul Eluard. » It was in 1929 that René Char first discovered the verse of Paul Eluard. Captivated the young twenty-two-year-old poet from L'Isle decided to send him a copy of his collection Arsenal inscribing it with the following dedication: « à Paul éluard enfin. L'Isle 17 septembre 1929. » His elder responded kindly a few weeks later: « Cher Monsieur n'est-il pas possible que nous nous connaissions mieux Ne pensez-vous pas venir à Paris Je serais heureux de vous dire combien j'aime vos poèmes tout ce si beau livre. » The young Char elated set off for the first time to meet his « substitute brother » Laurent Greilsamer René Char Perrin 2012 and soon decided to move to Paris to join his new companions Aragon Breton and Eluard placing himself under the Surrealist banner. Eluard abandoned by Gala who left him for Dalí offered Char to live in his apartment on rue Becquerel. The two bachelors soon engaged Odette a young maid who was more than agreeable: « Char enjoyed this refined service but was nevertheless surprised by the marked kindness of this pretty brunette. One day he took her in his arms. The young beauty smiled yielded and proved herself expert. That evening René recounted his adventure to Eluard who the next morning had his breakfast served in bed and invited Odette to join him. A temporary trio was thus formed. » op. cit. Char and Eluard now inseparable shared a taste for revelry and frenetic seduction roaming the Parisian boulevards in search of adventure. Thus on the evening of 21 May 1930 they met a destitute actress and trapeze artist: Nusch. « Eluard decided to take her back like a precious parcel to rue Becquerel. But it would take all the friendship of Char and his powers of persuasion to convince the young woman to stay giving Eluard the timeall the timeto fall in love. » op. cit. Char thus played the role of mediator enabling Eluard to win the great love of his life who died prematurely in 1946 of a cerebral haemorrhage. Despite several passing quarrelsnever over women but always over ideasthe two poets maintained a strong bond of friendship and intellect until the end of Eluard's life. « Je suis vieux René par instants à force de ne plus aimer la vie. Je vis par devoir. Mais je t'aime profondément comme je t'ai toujours aimé : ne te choque de rien ; venant de moi tout est pour moi affection et admiration. . Quelle preuve de plus peux-tu en avoir que je te dise que tu es le seul homme à qui je pourrais avouer ce grand vide que je porte en moi et devant qui je pourrais pleurer autant que j'en ai toujours envie. » GLM hardcover
