Soluble Fish

by André Breton

Translated into modern English by R J Dent

Soluble Fish (1924) by André Breton is a sophisticated poetic novel which is one of the first works of Surrealism, and which, along with The Surrealist Manifesto (1924), began the new literary movement which followed Paris Dada in the decade of the 1920s.

This is the first translation of this important surrealist work since 1969. Breton’s elusive and complex prose is now available to read in clear, modern English. Here is a Breton very different from the dour caricature usually presented to English speaking readers. His prose in Soluble Fish is playful, warm and engaging.
